KEVIN PIETERSEN STAYING AT HIS PARENTS’ PLACE THIS WEEKEND
You can take the boy out of Maritzburg…
Since suffering a monumental loss of form for his adopted, beloved, esteemed, most highly regarded homeland, England, Kevin “KP” Pietersen has made a rather quiet return to KwaZulu-Natal – the land from whence he first spawned.
That’s understandable, I hear you say. Sometimes all you need to get your head back in the game is a good sleep in your own bed, a braai with the family, and some warm milk with cinnamon from mom in the morning.
Well, yes, but it turns out he’s actually back in KZN to play the odd spot of cricket (not the garden variety).
Johannesburg – Cricket South Africa has approved a request from the Dolphins for Kevin Pietersen to play two games for his former team next month.
The South African-born England batsman will play for the Durban-based Dolphins in two four-day games in the domestic SuperSport Series in a bid to regain his form ahead of the Ashes series in Australia.
He will play against the Warriors from October 7-10 and against the Titans from October 14-17.
Oh. I see. So, our provincial sides are quite happy to oust local players from their playing spots in the team for a foreigner (yes, he IS a foreigner, don’t get me started on this) whose presence won’t add any long term value to the team whatsoever?
Nice vibe there, Dolphins. I see your website makes it pretty plain that you’re keen on local player development. Well, all right then.
What’s more, the record will show that the only times Pietersen ever played for the Dolphins were points in his career when no national team would touch him with a barge pole.

KP is a first class knob. In some way or another he has ruined every team he has played in. Like a cancer…
He doesn’t carry a single characteristic or value that South Africans are known for around the world.
“You’re dead to us KP”

This asshole tried to coax my girlfriend into his bed on his last tour of SA! All this while he wore his wedding ring and his WIFE was preggers in the UK.
This kid has not one admirable characteristic. A total Cee U Next Tuesday. I’m betting he has already smsed my girl.

I have agree with Andy…. KP is a total knob head… With a head that big i am surprised he can fit him through the plane door to get him out here !!
After all the sh!t he has said about South Africa while he has been in the UK they should have told him to get back on the plane when he arrived here !!!
Get your sorry loser ass back the UK KP !!!!

totally unacceptable. this country was too dangerous for him, and it’s even worse now because most of us will beat the living sh1t out of him at the first opportunity.
I’d love to be the immigration official denying him access to the country on the grounds of treason. Him and Rathbone(remember him?) are not welcome.
I hope Gulam Bodi (still at titans?) bowls him for a pair.

What a chop…i bet he’ll come back here again when his career in cricket is over in the UK…and beg us, the loyal citizens of this country, for acceptance! NEVER, once you turn your back on us, as Andy says, “ur dead to us!”
Go back to your cold miserable country where people appreciate you for the dickhead that you are!

‘I see your website makes it pretty plain that you’re keen on local player development.”
Owais Shah just signed for Cobras. I think it’s called international player policy. Not sure.
But yes, he’s a doos.

Omg. What a bunch of grouses. ‘Specially on a Mon morn.
Cut the guy some slack – he would have been playing SA as a first choice – we all know that.
Besides, maybe he finds some form and goes on to help England win the Ashes. Now that would be rad!!!!!!

“Playing SA as a first choice?”
Hahahah…hahahhah….hahahha….sorry…..are you a comedian?
“Help England with the Ashes” – his spot was never threatened…..his most fierce competitors are….Ian Bell…Ravi Bopara and maybe Owais Shah?
Please find a life vest and get off the KP island before it’s too late.
Australia for the Ashes.
