The buzz we had in 2000-01 was unique. We played 34 matches between January 1 and May 19, but lost only four.
During the season, the teams play every third day. That's a huge workload with some long journeys. I think, in football, we need more time to rest and recover.
When you don't play those big matches for a few years, it's tough to play back-to-back after that.
In the Premier League, we have to play a lot, and we always need the support of the fans.
My best tennis at my peak was when I played a lot of matches.
In Grand Slam, you play every two days, five-set match. You have a little bit more time to make mistake.
It's difficult to go out when there is a match every third day. There isn't that much time - it's either preparation or recovery - and I would rather spend my time with friends at home.
Over the season, the games come thick and fast, and in some games, you aren't so lucky.
In England, there is a tradition of playing on Saturday. But in Spain, I won the UEFA Cup with Valencia playing on Thursday and Sunday, which was just the same.
You play against an opponent so much the numbers got to match at some point! I played against the Raiders six years straight pretty much. I played against them more than any team I've ever played.
I was playing 60, 70 matches a year in college. In the pros, unless you're winning, you're not playing that many.
The one thing we need to do to continue to maintain Test cricket as being special is cutting down the amount and make it a real occasion rather than playing one after another.
It's not easy to play a match every two days.
A lot of people have a different perspective on this but my personal view is that while things have become more professional with we being centrally contracted, we don't play as regularly as the men do. The number of matches we play is too less as compared to men.
These days you can play almost 100 Test matches in six years.
