Post-playing Career

Within hours of Hussain announcing his retirement from cricket, it was confirmed that he would join the Sky Sports commentary team on a fulltime basis alongside other former England captains Bob Willis, David Gower and Ian Botham and his former England coach David Lloyd. "We now have the most experienced line-up ever seen in a commentary box," said Vic Wakeling of Sky. "Four former England captains with over 400 Tests, 20,000 runs, and 700 wickets between them - and each is a former Wisden Cricketer of the Year."

He also coaches at New Hall School, an independent school in Essex.

He played himself in a Bollywood movie, Patiala House.

Hussain wrote an award winning autobiography, Playing with Fire. It won the Best Autobiography category of the 2005 British Sports Book Awards.

Famous quotes containing the word career:

    He was at a starting point which makes many a man’s career a fine subject for betting, if there were any gentlemen given to that amusement who could appreciate the complicated probabilities of an arduous purpose, with all the possible thwartings and furtherings of circumstance, all the niceties of inward balance, by which a man swings and makes his point or else is carried headlong.
    George Eliot [Mary Ann (or Marian)
