[added:]: You can analyse these things to death, the truth is I've had a really good break, I'm healthy, I'm motivated, I had a really good training camp in India as well. Hopefully that's a pretty good recipe to play well.

Cook [ said]: It's always nice to our stability with Strauss at the top of order. We have had some great moments. We are pretty similar in character and we do enjoy batting together and hopefully on the 100th time we will do something special,

Gul [ said]: No doubt Strauss and Cook give them head start and will be a big challenge but not only the openers, their whole batting is in our sights and we need to get 20 wickets in the match to win it,

Swann [-said]: Really, my words were more of a glowing endorsement of Andrew Strauss' captaincy. Because I get very emotional on the field, Straussy is the perfect foil and helps calm me down. By contrast, Kev is a similar character to me - he gets involved and his emotions can run high. It would have been easy to splurge out 300 anodyne pages but I wanted to be honest. The only person I attack in the book is myself. I've been very scathing about my flaws and shortcomings,

irishsun 28-OCT-11

Swann [ said]: The thing about Strauss is that he is so calm and always says the right thing. So, when the stroppy merchants like myself, Stuart Broad and James Anderson start losing our rags, Strauss can return us very quickly to an even keel with a comment or even just a gesture,

Swann [-wrote]: I spend half my working life standing next to Andrew Strauss and I have to admit he is a bit of a hero to me. Strauss is a magnificent leader and his contribution to England's climb to the top of the world Test rankings has been absolutely massive,

James Smith [ says]: While I'm all for Strauss being positive and setting up a game, I think we'd be better suited leaving them something they can't chase,

Botham [-said]: England are unbeaten in seven series with six of them ending in victory for Andrew Strauss's [ Images ] side, and the pinnacle of these was the magnificent Ashes campaign last winter. That sealed it for me. Not just because it was the Ashes and winning them in Australia [ Images ] is notoriously difficult, but because they did it so comprehensively and in such style,

Broad [-added]: I’ve not captained a huge amount at all, but every time I take the field I try and think like a captain. I’ve been very fortunate to play under two fantastic captains in Strauss and (former England captain Michael) Vaughan,

dailytimesPK 06-MAY-11

Sangakkara [-said]: He is a player who always does something special whether it is batting, bowling or fielding and lifts the side with his performance. We gave him the new ball because we thought he can be good against Andrew Strauss, who is a left hander and does not have a great history against spin. Dilshan got his wicket and fielded well. Dilshan and Upul then batted brilliantly. The team should see how much of sheer responsibility he manages,
