Nasser Hussain Quotations

We are seeing Australia being drawn back to the way the rest of the world has to play Test cricket because without either of their two all-time greats - McGrath and Warne - they just cannot play like they have become accustomed to,

When everything is going against you in an Ashes battle, I know it can be very difficult to keep a lid on your emotions,

One thing I'm not going to do is walk away from this team in their present bruised and battered state and give it to some young lad and say, 'Here, you take them out there,'

It is a gradual thing that has happened over months. I wasn't willing to fight against youth -- I mean youth in the form of Andrew Strauss.

It has been a major decision for me and not one that I have taken lightly, nor have I taken it in the last few days,

My timing has been perfect all game. Test cricket is about playing the situation, not being an individual.

It would be good for Nasser Hussain, I'd just concentrate on my batting and it would be the easiest thing for me to do, but I will not take that option against that lot.

Rachael has a good head on her shoulders and has played a huge role off the field in helping Freddie become such an outstanding performer. Long may it continue.

Age has been catching up on me a little bit -- the body, the mind, the fire in the stomach and the eyes a little bit have started to deteriorate.

It's shocking news. It obviously takes a lot for Duncan to leave the tour - he's a very loyal bloke - but family must come first.

I've got to make some decisions in my life and I'll be making them in the next 24 to 48 hours.

The last thing I want to do is hold anyone up in their career. I only want to play in a side and for a country that wants me to play,

I know when you're out of form you go after the ball, but this is just ridiculous.

I felt something hit me and, looking down, saw pellets on the ground.

I don't see any significant difference with the new constitution,

In the past two or three years, the number of clubs has doubled ... we've got close to 8 000 players, about 60 to 80 clubs. It's not restricted to the metros any more, it's gone rural.

Australia played some good cricket, but they have forgotten how to win.

Sourav Ganguly has been an excellent captain, his record speaks for himself. I found him to be a tough competitor and every Indian should feel proud of Sourav.

They (Leeds United) used to be a bit like Arsenal, winning by one goal to nil or even less.

Graeme Smith is capable of reading other people's heads.
