With all franchise cricket going on around in the world, the intensity of the game, sometimes is a burden.

Alzarri Joseph is someone who I look at and say 'this guys has got potential, he's a wicket-taker.' He is someone who I'd like to see do well.

A guy who is walking out of his crease purposefully because he wants to take advantage is wrong.

KL Rahul has the technique for all forms of the game and for me more Test cricket than anything else. And if he performs so well in T20s and the 50-overs game, I think Test cricket is really where he's made for.

Virat Kohli is someone I have great respect for.

I want to leave a nice legacy.

It's good to have young players around you.

Test cricket is still important, so are ODIs, but T20 should be there too because of the crowd factor.

As a former cricketer you want to give something back.

When the others grew tired and went home and there was no one else to play with I used to play my own Test matches on the porch of our house, using a broom handle or a stick as the bat and a marble as the ball. I would arrange the pot plants to represent fielders and try to find the gaps as I played my shots.

I loved every minute of my 17-year career, all the Test matches, the ODIs and the World Cups. The only disappointment, if you ask me, was I never won a World Cup for West Indies.

I really enjoyed the period in which I played my cricket. I can look back now and wish I started 10 years later and played in the T20s. But I also wish I was born 10 years earlier so that I could have been part of the all-conquering West Indies team of that time.

Engaging in sports from a young age will ensure physical and mental well-being.

Sports will equip kids with the necessary tools to face academic challenges, and provide all-round development.

Children need sports, even if they are inclined towards academics.

Teachers across the world are doing all they can to ensure a good education is the top priority for children.

We had thousands of people outside Queen's Park Oval in Trinidad. We would wait to get inside to watch a Test at six o'clock in the morning.

When I was a kid, Test was the form of the game everybody wanted to watch.

MS Dhoni would know what's best for him. He has served Indian cricket very well.

MS Dhoni is an asset in any team he plays for.

When I was 21, I did not have that much pressure. I was sitting down on the bench... you know... cleaning Sir Vivian Richards's boots or doing something... getting ready to play international cricket.

I don't see myself as a father figure but as someone who the younger players can come to and talk to about cricket. Not just batting but cricket in general and I am ready to impart with any information or advice I have.

Every senior player has to play a part and help the skipper by performing their duties on the field and secondly by performing their duties off the field.

I have been captain in the past and I know what it takes to gel a team and get it going.
