If you want to excel in front of thousands, you'll have to outwork thousands in front of nobody.

Every accomplishment starts with the decision to try.

Failure should be our teacher, not our undertaker. Failure is delay, not defeat. It is a temporary detour, not a dead end. Failure is something we can avoid only by saying nothing, doing nothing, and being nothing.

Everyone has a goal, everyone is looking to play as long as possible. Once you put in the work, you will get the results

My take on women’s cricket is that it has grown, but it can grow a bit more once we continue to support it.

My first bat was shaped out of a coconut branch by my brother, and from that day, all I wanted to do was to be a West Indian cricketer.

The way I look at it, there are no holidays in cricket. I never stop training... rain or shine, I'm playing cricket.
