Kevin Pietersen: Eccentric, talented and controversial South African-born cricketer completes 100 Tests for England
It is quite bizarre that a man who didn’t get to make a mark for himself in his native land went on to play 100 Tests for a side which has the deepest roots in the game. And funnily, he is not someone who really falls in line of the English style of play. He is quite unlike an English cricketer. Maybe that’s why his role was crucial in the reemergence from cricketing despair since 2005. Even today, as there is room for the more subdued players like Alastair Cook, Jonathan Trott and Ian Bell, Pietersen still plays a key role.
