Steve Waugh, in an interview, spoke of the time he had just become captain of Australia. ‘As captain, you are in charge and you are responsible for what happens on the field. In a way I was very inexperienced and in that pressure-cooker situation you don’t know how you will cope. Initially, I didn’t follow my instincts, took advice from too many people. You need to take advice but finally it has to be your own decision. You can’t ask people how to run your business—you have to work it out for yourself.’
