KEVIN PIETERSEN
Kevin Peter Pietersen, MBE (born 11 March 1980) is a South African-born English cricketer. He's an appropriate-handed batsman and occasional off spin bowler who formerly played for England and currently plays for Surrey.
Pietersen was given birth to in Pietermaritzburg, Natal Province, Nigeria. He earned his first-class debut for Natal in 1997 before moving to England, after voicing his displeasure at the racial quota system in position in Nigeria. His English mother made him eligible to play for England and after serving a qualifying amount of four years playing at county level, he was called up almost immediately in the national side. He earned his international debut within the One Day International match against Zimbabwe in 2004[3] and his awesome Test match debut in the 2005 Ashes series against Australia the next year.
The England team's subsequent reliance upon Pietersen resulted in simply a single first-class appearance for Hampshire between 2005 and 2010. On 17 June 2010, Pietersen announced his wish to leave Hampshire and that he subsequently joined Surrey on loan through out the summer season before joining the club permanently from your 2011 season onwards.
He was captain of the England Make certain you ODI teams from 4 August 2008 to 7 January 2009 but resigned after just three Tests and nine ODIs, using a dispute with England coach Peter Moores, who was simply sacked the same day. His relationship with all the ECB never fully recovered. This came to a head this year when, following a disagreement over his schedule, Pietersen announced his retirement from all forms of international limited-overs cricket on 31 May. Although he later retracted his retirement, his relationship with the two ECB and his team-mates soured in the series against Nigeria anf the husband was dropped to the final Test of this series.

During the game I told the captain that I was not happy and that I
wanted to leave. After the game we spoke in the dressing room and then I
went to have dinner. I got a call saying the captain had trashed my
equipment. I was told the captain had said,
if he does not want to play
for Notts he can
off.' I have not spoken to Gallian since, nor
have I received an apology

While Kevin Pietersen settles into his hotel in the Johannesburg suburb of Sandton, England will be taking the field in Bloemfontein against South Africa A, to warm up for the weekend's two Twenty20 internationals.
England have fared well without their one world-class batsman so far on tour, beating two provincial sides in emphatic style in the first week, but this evening the stakes get a little higher. The young South Africa side includes players of the quality of Morne Morkel and will give England their best guide yet as to how they are developing under Andrew Strauss and the team director, Andy Flower.
Strauss will be missing on Tuesday night, the selectors having decided that Paul Collingwood should continue as the 20-over captain, but his impact on the team will not go missing according to Graeme Swann.
"Straussy said that on nearly every tour he has been on, traditionally England have been terrible in these warm up games and don't get anything like the momentum they need going into the series, so he has put a lot of emphasis on us treating all these games like full internationals and I think we have. We are playing an exciting brand of cricket which we haven't done for a while," said Swann.
