"Then he starts chatting to me and I realised the shower was still on and I realised he was having a cigarette. I was like, 'Warnie, we're not in high school anymore, they're not going to kick you out. It's OK'.

"708 test wickets later he was [the next big thing].
"He wouldn't listen to me. I said a few things, he'd just roll his eyes and go for a smoke."
