If they don't at least consider picking him now then they never will.

How anyone can ignore 200+ is beyond me, lets hope Groves has had some influence on Strauss!

I feel a recall is on it's way for Kevin

HE AINT FINISHED YET.

With his old mucker Tremlett on 30 no he is heading towards 250. Incidentally I have seen Tremlett up close and his is the biggest human on the planet-he is massive!!

I wonder in the history of cricket if there has ever been a cricketer who splits opinion so much by the fans.. I can't think of one.
The way the ECB are conducting themselves thou support 'on the ground' is gathering.....KP has some press on side to.

KP puts himself in the legendary bracket that includes the likes of Gareth Roderick, Steven Davies, Jimmy Adams, Garry Wilson and Alex Gidman to have scored over 150 against Gloucestershire in the last 12 months alone  .

The shots are really coming out now! Practising for the t20 blast/ipl here.

Getting better and better as the innings is going. 241*

Leicestershire, Sam... Runs are runs though, even if dropped 4 times.

Oops, that's the one  . Just playing devils advocate  .

This is KP, we know he's got the class to cut it at the top level. He was just out of form. Runs against anyone, especially 250 of them just shows he's coming back into form.
If it was an unknown kid you'd say maybe he needs to prove himself against better bowling. But we know what an in form KP can do...

where he gonna bat in our test line up

Opener slot open  not much else ago maybe a 6 too 1,3,5 taken for sure

He s unlikely to get a go I would have thought

Now has his best first class score. Also his 50th hundred

He knows himself that he is unlikely to be considered for the NZ tests - Cook, probably Lyth, Balance, Bell , Root is nailed on and the lack of a world class spinner means we need either Stokes or Ali at 6. 

If someone fails, he could be in with a shot - if necessary Ali could open, albeit badly.

Might get a t20 slot... Not an Alastair in sight there.

Hopefully he bats between the two sets of stumps! I really don't care what number, get the lad in the side!

Get Root opening, slot KP in at 4 and move Bell down to 5.

He might get an ODI gig too, Morgan apparently wanted him in the side (something Eoin probably was contractually obliged to deny!)

He's just range hitting now. Ridiculous shot making! 360 hitting!

300 looks on the cards. Chance for 400?
