Yup, I'm an Englishman so in a way I kind of hated him during his career but what a player he was. I had to watch Border and then Ponting bash our bowling around the park for many, many years - as a local-league opener, those are the two Aussie batsmen I really admire that I've seen in my lifetime. Both finished their careers averaging over 50 in tests.

KP is highly skilled. Pontin is a warrior with talk and action!

Easy laughter that comes from an inner honesty is admirable. I like this guy and hope he loses the Ashes.

As an aussie, surprisingly, I actually really like Kevin Pietersen. He’s quite humble and also informative. Probably gotten a bum rap in the past (excluding him sending texts about Strauss)

Ponting hook/pull were the best.. KP also played the short ball in a very stylishly and imperialistic manner

Tbh from 2005 - 2013 if there was one wicket the Aussies valued highly, it was his. This is why they had no sledging rule specifically to Pietersen as it riled him up and he scored big. I still remember 06 Ashes down under. They celebrated his wicket like anything and that Aussies side was probably one of the best ever. If the Aussies fear/respect you then you must be that damn good.

Every batsman has a bowler or two who might trouble them. The bowler doesn't have to be a great one. Sachin found Hansie the toughest bowler to face. Doesn't make him any less of a great batsman he was. Ponting and Peterson alike had their share of bowlers they found difficult. But that doesn't make them any less of a great player they were.

KP eloquent and insightful

Great advice from Kevin...

i miss kp so much. the elegance, the stance, the aggression. Him raising his sleeves and flexing his knees.

Top class

My batting style deviates from the conventional approach as I employ an open stance and shuffle across, reminiscent of Steven Smith from Australia. While I acknowledge that this may not be the recommended method, it is the approach through which I find success in scoring runs. Should I adhere to the traditional way of playing?

Well that was excellent 😂

Remember playing with my neighbours' sons with mini cricket bats and squish ball in the living room. One earns a run every time batter steps on the ball at the pitch.😊

Yeah same with the way Aussies booed against an 17 year old Ishant Sharma back in 2008. Englishman James Anderson Pushed Ravindra Jadeja (then 25 year old ) on basis of his race, and most importantly how English media did the cover up for Anderson. I think you might have forgotten how Siraj was abused on the basis of his Race back in 2020-21. These are few of the incidents and if someone goes deep within, they will find many more. Now that Tides have turned and Indians became a force to reckon on Social MEDIA, and moreover they are now giving it back on face to opposition, it's hard for people to digest. The Green's Catch of Gill was a controversial one and even many Aussie players vouched that, it's probably a bump ball. 😉 No-one (even Batter who got dismissed) was blaming Green. Instead they show their resentment against Umpires (esp TV Umpire). Mind you its the same Green who got all the lauds and applauds while playing in IPL (offcourse money is there 🤑 ), and most importantly we do know how to treat our guests well (even on foreign soils).

Tbh he had the stones between his legs and sheer audacity to walk down the track to McGrath and treat him like a spinner. This is probably one of the most accurate bowlers of all time. Partially paid off but McGrath had the last laugh. Pietersen was quite something. I still remember his reverse sweep 6 against a prime Murali. No one would dare dream of doing that against Murali in his prime in a time where the shot was extremely unconventional (nowadays it's a standard shot).

@@GIBBO4182 I think the point is that Bazball can only work when it's really flat. Not going to work in good bowling conditions, and hard to sustain on pitches with a good balance between bat and ball. In England you need to rely on the weather to assist your bowlers, when the pitch is flat even though aus aren't scoring as quick as England, they'll take enough time out of the game to make it hard for England to press for the win just by batting normally. And it's also shown that if there are overheads and movement around, they're not going to be able to use Bazball to negate the aus quicks.

Pietersen's insights are germane to him alone. Mentally weak. Punter typifies the Aussie grit. KP the worst of SA and Eng.
