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:

    A black boxer’s career is the perfect metaphor for the career of a black male. Every day is like being in the gym, sparring with impersonal opponents as one faces the rudeness and hostility that a black male must confront in the United States, where he is the object of both fear and fascination.
    Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)
