Anyone is free to judge me, but they weren't there in my tough times.
S. Sreesanth
As my mother is a Kerala Brahmin and my father a Kerala Nair, every day in the house is like a religious festival.
I love cricket and am the last person who would get involved in something like spot-fixing. Anyone who knows me will think twice before coming to me with such an offer. Because I don't even listen to the captain before I play a match. I wouldn't agree to do it even for Rs 100 crore.
I'm more disciplined now. The days of late-night parties are over.
The moment I see my daughter's face, I am instantly happier, my stress just disappears, and I forget everything else.

I used to watch a lot of motivational films and videos to remain positive.
It is not uncommon to use a towel in afternoon matches, particularly in a place like Mohali in the month of April-May.

One emerges as a better person after going through the wringer.
I love watching Mohammed Shami and Umesh Yadav steam in. They both are sharp, possess good pace, and swing the ball - making them lethal.
Even the biggest of criminals don't go through what I or my family went through. A small incident was portrayed in the wrong way in front of the world. Maybe that's how the world works.
Who says men don't cry? I used to sob like a baby as I was forced to move around in a wheelchair for two months after twin surgeries on my toes.
There is nothing more disgraceful for any sportsperson than to be accused of murky stuff like match-fixing or spot-fixing.
My day starts with the chanting of Gayatri Mantra and Om Namah Shivay. I chant them every time I bowl.
I am always open to the idea of helping young and aspiring cricketers.
I want to be part of a family which wants to improve Indian democracy.
For me, God is someone who takes care of me and creates good and bad phases in my life so that i can learn from them. This is why even when I am going through a lean phase, I don't get fazed, for I believe that's God's way of teaching me something new.
I want my bowling to speak for me. In fact, not only my bowling, my batting, my fielding. Overall, I want my cricket to speak.
I was born in a small village in Kerala. From there, I went on to play for the Kerala state team and international test cricket for India, and now I am working in TV shows and cinema... Any miracle can happen.
I have a small and decent indoor cricket facility at home itself.
When life gave me tough situations, acting helped me cope with those situations.
With age comes wisdom.
I was not born a cricketer to start with, so I had to really work hard; I had to really train hard. It took lots of practice and lots of matches to get there.
I don't mind which wicket you play on - wet, dry, slow, or fast. I just want to play cricket.
I have realised that it's important to be a sport, be nice, and know what to speak and when.
I am sure I will make a great politician because I love to help people in a genuine way.
I feel nobody can be against me when God is within me.
I always believe there is no fun without challenges.
I don't really believe getting into a relationship just for the sake for it. I don't get satisfied by it.
I am sure I will make a great politician because I love to help people.
All my blessings are thanks to the Almighty.

I don't know how I became controversy's favourite child.
During my days as a cricketer, I used to be so involved with the game, I never bothered to look after my family.
I don't really think about the crowd when I am in the middle. I actually forget about the crowd, forget the money; that's exactly what I always do.
I play cricket with passion. I just want to win games for the country.
All I say is that I totally believe in the judiciary and in the Indian justice system.
I am not worried about criticism. In fact, it helps one perform better.
If you do a mistake, I think you should get punished.
The secret to success is to be yourself.
