Spinners have a main role, whether in the IPL or world cricket. But it's hard to be a legspinner: you have to be accurate.

I love to talk about bowling, and whoever comes for hel,p I'm always there. Even in IPL, PSL, I try to help the youngsters as much as I can.

I always try to help spinners as much as I can wherever I go and play, anywhere in the world.

I've been working really hard on my fitness.

I wouldn't want to overstay in the team for too long. I want to leave with respect.

I'm always looking for new and exciting opportunities.

My job, if someone picks me, is to come and perform. That's what we do for a living.

I always come on the ground with a smile on the face, but inside, I'm always ready to fight and try to give as much as I can.

I always love challenges, and when I bowl, I always look to get wickets.

It is a big challenge as a spinner to play modern day cricket, where you have to have five players in the circle.

When someone attacks you, there is always an opportunity, and that's what I look for.

I believe one should work hard to get what you want.

I have learnt that patience is important: patience when you bowl and also in how you handle life.

South Africa is now my country.

I lost my parents, which is the toughest thing to overcome.

One of my dreams was to win the World Cup.

I am the kind of person who will give his best every single time. I cannot underperform unless I'm playing with kids. Actually, I'd probably still get angry if they try to hit me!

In 2004 in England, there was one catch that was very special to me. I was bowling in a league match, and the batsman hit the ball over my head. I had to run back to between mid-off and mid-on to take the catch, and I did.

My wife is a beautician, but the first time I did something to my hair was not through her.

The googly and the slider are my favourite type of deliveries, and I love it when batsmen try to cut or sweep me and, while attempting those strokes, get lbw or clean bowled.

Abdul Qadir was my main role model. I just wanted to be like him because, for me, he was only guy who no one could read. He was that good. His passion, his love for legspin, was unique. He would create new things all the time: flippers, sliders, three to four kinds of googlies, legspinners, topspinners.

Legspinners are exciting characters.

For me, what is important is, as a legspinner, you need determination, especially in modern-day cricket. You need to feel that you can change a game.

According to me, a leg-spinner is such a character who, on his day, can win the match for you if he is bowling well and has the support of the captain and the coach.
