Profile

Kevin Pietersen deserves to be recognised as one of the most captivating cricketers ever to pull on an England shirt. His flamboyant strokeplay has been at the heart of many of England's finest performances in the past decade. A brazen belief in his own ability, moments of outrageous unorthodoxy and, at times, a surprising vulnerability on and off the field have all combined to give him great box-office appeal.

In 2013, he became the highest England run-scorer in all international forms of the game combined, but Pietersen's ability to command attention on the field has been matched only by his ability to divide opinion off it - a situation that was never more apparent than when the ECB abruptly ended his international career at the start of 2014, in the wake of England's 5-0 Ashes defeat. After more than nine years and many controversies, Pietersen accepted that he would not play for his adopted country again. England's loss will be the IPL's gain.
