I've always maintained - a captain is only as good as his team. It is not about my leadership, it is not about me.

One needs to be clear headed. I believe in all-round fitness.

Kolkata Knight Riders is not about me. It is about the team.

Sometimes it's important to get out of that comfort zone and, I think, try new things, and sometimes you can express yourself better.

I think that a leader is someone that needs to make an impact on, off the cricket field and in their lives as well.

Our flag is our identity, and we can't disrespect or let anyone else disrespect our identity.

The day I feel like I can't contribute to the team's success, that's the day I am going to call it quits.

Yes, I'm the same grumpy Gautam who smiles very less on the field. I go very quiet before going into the match. I guess it works for me, though my team-mates keep telling me it is just a game.

I play for India, I play for the 100 million people of my country.
