“I never dreamed I would captain England in a home World Cup.”
“I don't seek the limelight.”
“I was helped by the fact that my dad is a cricket fanatic and that my three brothers and two sisters all played. It's just part of our family.”
“The way New Zealand played at the 2015 World Cup changed cricket. The way they went about it epitomised the way they are as a nation.”
“One of the important things as a captain or coach is knowing what's going on around you, and knowing the right thing to say at the right time.”
“You can't lead a team and commit to something if you're constantly worried about your back falling out.”
“When I first started playing international cricket, people around me started telling me what was being said. And you're never as good as anybody says you are. I try to stay quite logical about things.”
“Faith is important, even if you're not religious. You need to have beliefs in people or things.”

“To play in a Super Over at the end of a draining day takes a huge amount of effort.”
“Being adventurous and open to something different is something I'd encourage captains to do.”
“You have to be adaptable. I don't think you can go into a game with any fixed plan.”
“I don't make an effort to advance my own profile, everything revolves around the team.”
“People complain about too much T20. But the only recognised T20 in Europe is the Blast so if we are going to grow the game outside the U.K. it has to be everywhere.”
“I tend to stay quite level. I make better decisions when I am level and I also take in good information when I am level, so it's important for me to stay in that head space.”
“To be the best you have to win trophies.”
“Coming to Middlesex, there was one coach in particular who backed me. But outside of that, it's a pretty lonely place.”
“I had to believe in myself from quite a young age. And I had to grow up pretty early.”
“When a bowler comes on you want to put him under pressure. He might not allow you to do that but find a way.”
