I never played with a runner in my entire life, even in schools, because only I know where the ball is going and how hard, when I hit the ball, something my runner will never know about.
I have played for 15 years and it has been a dream.
I just want to continue the way I am going.
I want to give my six hours of serious cricket on the ground and then take whatever the result.
Isn't cricket supposed to be a team sport? I feel people should decide first whether cricket is a team game or an individual sport.
I just keep it simple. Watch the ball and play it on merit.
I am not thinking too far ahead, just want to take it one thing at a time.
And that is the reason why this victory is great, because different players have made contributions to the win.
Beating Pakistan is always special because they are a tough team and we have a bit if a history regarding Pakistan.
Before coming here I had a minor back problem and I thought whenever I play Pakistan I get a back problem.
But eventually it is a game of cricket.
Every individual has his own style, his own way of presenting himself on and off the field.
I have never thought where I will go, or forced any targets on myself.
I always had a dream to play for India but I never let it put pressure on me.
It has been very good here, but the World Cup game was different. It had a different significance to it.
