THE SOUTH AFRICAN ORIGIN ENGLAD CRICKETER "KEVIN PETERSEN" IS ONE OF THE BRAVE,DISCIPLINED,STYLISH CRICKETER WE HAVE EVER SEEN.
THIS GUY IS A STRONG MIDDLE ORDER PLAYER FOR ENGLAND AND ALSO FOR RCB.
IN WORLD T20 2010,HIS DID A EXTRAORDINARY JOB IN FETCHING THE FIRST WORLD CUP FOR ENGLAND AGAINST THE ASHES RIVALRIES.
THIS PLAYER MADE HIS FIRST TEST TON IN ASHES.
After a quiet debut against Zimbabwe he was thrown in during the one-dayers against South Africa in 2005.Pietersen, though, came back strongly with a 97 in his first innings under new captain Andrew Strauss in the West Indies, and his status as one of the game's biggest players was confirmed with a US$1.55 million annual IPL contract, the most expensive along with team-mate Andrew Flintoff. But his initial foray with the Royal Challengers Bangalore was a disappointment, and a long-standing Achilles injury undermined his effectiveness. After grimacing his way through the early part of the summer, Pietersen took the plunge and underwent surgery only hours after England's victory over Australia in the second Ashes Test at Lord's. His rehabilitation kept him sidelined for the rest of the summer. After four months out of the game he returned to the country of birth for England's tour. With much expected of him, Pietersen endured a torrid tour. Having compiled a chanceless 81 in the first Test of the series at Centurion he senselessly ran himself out with a century in sight. He didn't recover his composure and finished the four Tests with 177 runs at 25.28. The concerns over his form mounted when he failed in each of the three ODIs in England's next tour to Bangladesh. Slowly, the runs and then the swagger returned, first in the IPL and then when he was man of the tournament in England's successful World Twenty20 campaign. Bossing the all the opposition bowlers he made 248 runs in six innings and even managed a paternity dash back to England for the birth of his first child.
SO,LETS WISH HIM FOR A BRIGHT CARRIER.
