Bolt interview: It as probably assumed that Jamaican sprinters are born wearing track spikes, but you played other sports first, right?

I was playing cricket first and my cricket coach was the one that introduced me to track and field. I made the switch because I was actually good at it. I was a good cricket player, but track and field was bigger. There were more competitions to do. When I was younger, cricket was just one tournament. I had more time to do track and field.
