Quotes
I think our journeys are just so different, to be honest. I think the way he broke into the system, when I broke into the system, was obviously two different pathways,
But it's always good, it's good competitive nature. So, we compete hard, but there's a lot of love involved.
And yeah, he bowled countless overs to me and Jordan, Jordan bowled to me, I bowled to Jordan and just the garden cricket games most of the time ended up in tears and fights, because we're so competitive
He just understood his game at a very young age very, very well. And that just laid a platform for him to come to the scene and do very well.
And then, regardless of the system, and how it worked, and the opportunities that he was offered, compared to maybe when I was at his age, he rocked up to the system, just lit the world on fire.
My whole career, I've always had to fight for opportunities, and when opportunities come, I've always been relentless in taking opportunities,
There's nothing different. So, I don't know. It's just an unrelenting desire for me to do well and take opportunities when I get them, because I've had very few of them. I've always had to fight for every opportunity that I got.

Even when you play the Joburg Super Kings, those irritating whistles go off. It's this deafening noise. But it's just so cool how the crowd gets kept behind every single team.
One of the biggest things I also learned from them, obviously legends of the game in their own respect, but the way that they just stay human as well.
“I learned a lot more of the mental side of the game, just being able to perform at that level and stay with my feet firmly on the ground
