I take life easy, not questioning every time the going gets tough.

My day starts with the chanting of Gayatri Mantra and Om Namah Shivay. I chant them every time I bowl.

I love cricket and am the last person who would get involved in something like spot-fixing. Anyone who knows me will think twice before coming to me with such an offer. Because I don't even listen to the captain before I play a match. I wouldn't agree to do it even for Rs 100 crore.

It is not uncommon to use a towel in afternoon matches, particularly in a place like Mohali in the month of April-May.

Sri Lankan wickets may not be conducive for fast bowling, but it doesn't mean that the quicks can't get wickets there.

I think the toughest phase of life is over, and I don't wish it on anyone. My family has gone through a lot, and I don't want to dwell on the past.

I'm a pretty emotional person.

As my mother is a Kerala Brahmin and my father a Kerala Nair, every day in the house is like a religious festival.

I stopped hating people. I also tried to see the positives in negative situations that I found myself in.

I have a small and decent indoor cricket facility at home itself.
