"All my coaches tell me that I have been under achieving."
Coach

"I have been trying to lose weight for the last two-three months and it has gone really well. In the last 6-12 months I have been in the best form in quite a while."

"The wickets I have played on for my whole career, most of them have been to suit fast bowlers in Australia."
Career

Fear

Opportunity

"My life was falling apart and then to come out and play and have my best ever - 40 wickets, 250 runs... But the only reason I could do that was because of the way I thought and I think I'm pretty strong mentally. I think I am anyway, pretty strong to get over whatever it is."
