Pithy remarks and quotable quotes. Wordsworth takes the best statements of the week and packages them into one exciting feature. From quotes that help you delve further into the psyche of players to acerbic barbs from incensed cricketers to remarks that are just downright hilarious, we have them all. They may not quite be "from the mouths of babes and sucklings," but they are just as interesting.

March 3rd week
"This was the best innings of my career, considering the team was
under pressure and 1-2 down in the series." - Yuvraj Singh after his match-winning knock at Hyderabad.
""He has always been a good batsman, saves 15 runs on the field
and can bowl when required. A special player," - Sourav Ganguly on Yuvraj Singh
"If they are hoping to win the World Cup or be anywhere in the
reckoning as serious contenders, they have to shed excess baggage
even if it means dumping some vintage performers." - Sunil Gavaskar
"If there is a chink in Dravid's armour, it is the
fact that the pressure gets to him sooner or later." - Erapalli Prasanna
"I was very pleased with the side that was
picked for the last two one-dayers as it gave us a lot of options
in that there were quite a few all-rounders in the squad." - Sourav Ganguly
"Whenever we do well, it's either the opposition missed Tendulkar
or Anil Kumble. But we missed Andy Flower too. It's not that we
win because the opposition fared badly but because we performed
better than the opposition on the day. - Stuart Carlisle
"There is always pressure. If you have to win at this level, you
have to do it under pressure." - John Wright
"I had to prove those who had written me off, those who had
pointed fingers on inadequacies in my game, that they were all
wrong," - Harbhajan Singh in a recent interview
