hes having a bad day then as it starting with a parking fine!!!
-
Why did he post that on Twitter? Does he not realise the problems he can get himself into now?
-
We were discussing this in the Eng v Pak thread, should have put it in its own thread really
Here is the tweet that was removed - http://twitpic.com/2jxr0o
Bet the aussies are having a smirk about all of this
-
It has been deleted on his Twitter
-
Yeah it was brought down almost immediately, must have realised what he was doing as soon as he hit send.
-
This is what he put on twitter...
Yep.. Done for rest of summer!! Man of the World Cup T20 and dropped from the T20 side too.. Its a fu*k up!! Surrey have signed me for l ...
Good to see the selector manning up and dropping him
-
Both posts are still up on my twitter feed unless there is a third?
-
Just checked and it's still up for me. I hope England players don't get banned from twitter. Graeme swann is a genius on his posts
-
I can still see it in Tweetdeck, but if you go his twitter page http://twitter.com/kevinpp24 (http://twitter.com/kevinpp24) it has gone

both posts? i only saw one
-
Just the one about the traffic warden.
-
ah ok. not having a good day is he!
-
Kieswetterbhasbto play. Look at his last 2 CB40 inning in the last 2 days. But is bell over his injury to replace KP
-
Not suggesting he has to play for one moment but have been more impressed by Buttler's latest stats than Keiswetter's
-
Buttler is ahead of Kieswetter at the same age.
-
Don't know much about this Buttler at all but his strike rate seems phenomenal - is he English?
-
Yes, ask SillyShilly as he played against him at Taunton last season....
-
Just saw this on the Guardian - http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/2010/aug/31/kevin-pietersen-england-dropped-tweet?CMP=twt_gu (http://www.guardian.co.uk/sport/2010/aug/31/kevin-pietersen-england-dropped-tweet?CMP=twt_gu)
-
Surely buttlers keeping is behind the standard if kieswetter as he has not been keeping
-
Does this mean he will go to the Champions League????
-
According to Darren Gough's twitter update, KP chose to play for Surrey and not go to the CL - http://twitter.com/DGoughie/status/22615231788 (http://twitter.com/DGoughie/status/22615231788)
How accurate that is i dont know, but i believe the two of them are pretty close. DG was KP's best man i remember rightly
-

yes english, educated at kings college, taunton. leading schools player in terms of batting average for a couple of seasons. most sucessful captain Kings college have ever had i think. when i played him he was phenomenal behind the stumps and he hit 160 odd of 50 balls against us.
-
He played against our first team 2 years ago in a cup game and hit 55, good player hope he plays for England!
-
yeah he looked a good player on the couple of occasions i have seen him
-
Pietersen needed to be dropped, by his own admission he is shot mentally, get away from the England set up and go a demolish some poor county attack....
As for Buttler, I've only seen him on TV but everytime Somerset are on I want to seem him bat, really like the way he goes about things, the lad clearly has plenty of talent. Let's hope he is given time to establish himself at Somerset and maybe get a go behind the sticks....
-
Apparently may play in surreys game on sky tommorow slim but a chance
-
That's what they were saying on sky sports earlier...debut tomorrow apparently!
-
KP is defo playing tomorrow for Surrey.
Think it will do him good in the long run. To be fair to Andy Flower he's done a lot of things right for England and this is one where we have to trust his judgement in giving KP time away from the international scene. I personally would have liked to have seen KP play in the 20/20 then play for Surrey.
On a side note why didn't Middlesex snap him up, and on side side note, what has Owais Shah done to be treated so badly by everyone? ie England and now Middlesex.
-
I've got £2 on Pietersen top scoring for Surrey tomorrow! Is the sort of thing he would do on his debut, hit a hundred or something.....
Also got a couple of quid on Shakib-Al-Hasan top scoring for Worcester, watch this space....
-
ian - what are the odds on those bets?
-
not sure exactly... i think they were both around 4/1 so my returns would be about £20....

-
Haha that last one's good
-
Cracking bet Ian! Shakib was struggling to top score....from the sideline ;)
and lets hope KP top scores as that means it could be close, unless they are skittled and he makes like 15 :L
-
Anyone got any information on Pietersen new grill, it is very flat. Compared to the normal one which angle in at the bottom.
Broad is also using it.
Mike?
-
I have not seen anything, it may be a new model, could be a change of manufacturer.

Watching the interview he does come across as a really decent bloke and I do feekl he is misunderstood at times.
-
It called media training, they take classes in it.
-
I liked the quote 'i would never swear on twitter in the public domain' ???
Atherton was saying in the times today that he is not at all popular in the england camp.
-
Yes he is definately telling the press what he wants them to hear but nevertheless he is certainly confident in his own abilities and thats refreshing.He would surely make a better drinking buddy than Bell or Morgan.Warnie has definately rubbed off on him. Still has to get his batting act together though.
-
I'd much rather have a beer with Bell or Morgan...
Good idea for a thread!!!
-
i wanna have a beer with freddie!
