Kevin Pietersen, SA20: Former England captain Kevin Pietersen is seen doing commentary in S20 these days. While making a big disclosure about the league, Pietersen told that he wanted to buy one of his teams in S20. He told about this, “Yes, I was one of the bidders.” He further said that I wanted to buy a team, but I did not have enough money to own a team.
Said this about partnership
He further said about buying this team, “If any of the 6 teams wants to offer a partnership with him, he will accept it. This is interesting to me. I don’t think there’s hope here, but it’s interesting.”
Appreciation of changed rules in SA20
Born in South Africa, Kevin Pietersen praised the new rules in S20. He said about this, “The new rules are very good. Toss doesn’t play much role. I love change. Bonus points is a great idea. You saw that the bonus point helped identify the semi-finalists. I mean, you want to change the rules to make it more enjoyable for everyone. Why not? Keep growing like this. Keep changing the game. Keep it entertaining.
Explained the importance of ODI cricket
Seeing the growing T20 cricket, Pietersen said about ODI cricket, “We cannot say that cricket would be better without ODIs because we are not there yet. We can see this in the future, although the World Cup is very valuable. I have won everything except ODI World Cup in my career. We have won the Ashes, we have beaten India at their home, we have won the T20 World Cup. But there is a regret of never winning the ODI World Cup.
Pietersen’s international career was like this
Pietersen has played a total of 104 Tests, 136 ODIs and 37 T20 Internationals in his career. He has scored 8181 runs in Tests at an average of 47.28, 4440 runs in ODIs at an average of 40.37 and 1176 runs in T20 Internationals at an average of 37.93 and a strike rate of 141.51.
