Kevin Pieterson

I feel KP has to accept that the door to an England place has been firmly slammed shut. I think at times he lets his ego get the better off him. In 2005 he was simply brilliant but he hasn't shown anything like that sort of form in Test the last couple of years. I wasn't surprised Michael Clarke said England will be weaker without him this summer, maybe we will be, but KP probably has to accept that he isn't going to play for England again. And I agree Peter Graves & the ECB in general has a lot to answer for the way they have handled KP and Mores' sacking.

If he wanted to play for England again Pieterson shouldn't have written that book.

Did it ever get ECB clearance? I think not!!

At 35 he is hardly the future he has what a season in him at best two if you stretch it. Its time to move on from he carries too much baggage which is not worth the price of upsetting the team dynamic.

Does England cricket have a dynamic or not? The problem in Oz was that the team dug itself into a hole and KP dug them out then they dug themselves back in it!! But at the same time the Aussies had probably worked out how to get him out.
