"Laxman could potentially play shots on either side of the wicket to any given ball."

“Watch him. But don't try to imitate. Only VVS can play them.”

“The reason why Indian bowling has done exceptionally well in this World Cup is MS Dhoni. When we wrote them off, he kept supporting them. When they were struggling, only he was standing by his bowlers.”

“When he walks in, whether you are batting in the middle or sitting in the pavilion and a wicket has fallen, he brings calm to the whole dressing room. I, personally, get a feeling of calm and solidity, not because Laxman will always score but because you know that he will never let you down in terms of effort: you know that he is there and he will pull his weight. There is no higher compliment. You know he has the requisite quality, and that he can read situations well. He has turned up in every circumstance: bad pitches, good pitches, when setting a total or after the opposition has piled up a big score.”

“You didn't bowl badly,you just came up against best batsman of spin bowling that i have ever seen.”

“Statutory Warning:These stunts have been performed by an expert.Please don't try at home.”

“I hope his back pretty sore for next week as well and he can't play.”
