It's God's grace and there will be lot more expectations. I'm lucky to have played with legends of the game such as Stephen Fleming, Matthew Hayden, Mike Hussey and Mahendra Singh Dhoni. I hope it will only improve and there's a long way to go this season, as we have the IPL before the T20 World Cup and...

I gave it a thought but I want to focus on the series against Australia which is another major assignment. After a lengthy Sri Lanka tour, I will rest before starting training for the Australia series. I don’t want to be exhausted because the matches against Australia will be our last before the ICC Wor...
We had a look at it and thought what's best preparation for him for the T20 World Cup. Playing a full season of T20 cricket with Essex in England – we felt that was a much better preparation.
We want [players] to be fresh for the T20 World Cup because that's ideally the one where we really want to do well in
Players, who were in both ACC T20 Cup and ICC World T20 teams received the contract amount for six months and those in only either one of the two teams received three months´ pay
With the ICC World Twenty20 coming up we felt the best preparation for James would be to play a large number of Twenty20 matches in that competition rather than two matches in this tour.
I've been out of favour with the national side for more than 2 years and all I can do is to try and perform well and to attempt to impress the selection committee. I would dearly love to play in the Twenty20 World Cup later this year.
I expect a close contest with several teams a chance to progress to the next stage of World T20 qualification.
I personally believe I have a chance [to play in the upcoming T20 World Cup). I might be on the wrong side of 30s, but I think I am still the second best spinner in the country behind Harbhajan [Singh], probably alongside Ramesh Powar. Somewhere down the line, you live on hope. I think I am bowling well...
He is just like me, not a natural wicket-keeper but a very hardworking cricketer. He is one of India’s successful captains. He won the World T20 and World Cup. It is a great achievement.
Wadey will be in England with us in the one-day squad. He’ll be in Sri Lanka against Pakistan with us and he’ll be in the Twenty20 World Cup
I don’t want to just play Test cricket. I want to lead the team at the World Twenty20 as well but obviously that’s up to the selectors. As far as people calling my batting style defensive is concerned, I play according to the situation
I don't want to confine myself to only playing Test matches. I know I am good enough for all three formats and I am looking forward to leading Pakistan in Twenty20 World Cup
I felt every game that I was getting a lot better, we've been working on things every day to get better in these conditions, we've got subcontinent conditions coming up at the Twenty20 World Cup.
At the moment most of our senior Proteas are spread around the world in England and India and those who are at home are undergoing rehabilitation from injuries picked up during the past season. We also have to bear in mind that the Proteas have a hectic schedule ahead of it with very important tours to ...
Pressure will always be there at this level. But we are used to it. I'm sure our performance will be under scrutiny for the World Twenty20. It would be really nice to make a comeback through a successful outing in IPL
In the wake of the national team’s poor performance at the ICC World Twenty20 qualifying tournament in Dubai, Cricket Kenya has re-affirmed its commitment to improving standards of the game at all levels in the country
I'm pretty sure all the boys will want to make this Test a good one for themselves personally and for the team because we've had a really good summer, we want to finish on a high before we get stuck into one-day cricket and the Twenty20 World Cup
But really, this time round they don't have an option. There is no other major tournament before the T20 World Cup so in essence, they will have to reply on the performances they see in this tournament. If Yusuf Pathan has a bad tournament, I don't see him making it to the squad. Conversely, if Rahane c...
The idea is to give exposure to a few new players either in the ODI or in the T20 as the tilt is towards building a separate T20 squad for this year's T20 World Cup in Sri Lanka
The Twenty20 World Cup will be played this year in Sri Lanka from Sept 18th-Oct 7th between 12 teams
To blame fatigue would be taking the easy way out ... But I feel India should also look closely at their T20 form. We won the first T20 World Cup but after that we've been pretty ordinary in this format.
One of the highlights that certainly excites me is the decision to extend the World Twenty20 event, which takes place in Bangladesh in 2014
Three additional Twenty20 Internationals may be played in the year in which the ICC World Twenty20 is being staged provided there is a corresponding reduction in the maximum number of permitted ODIs .
