And so you aim towards the sky,
And you'll rise high today,
Fly away, Far away,
Far from pain....

Its difficult to believe that he was actually given the captaincy of the side.... :shock:

The problem with Pieterson is that he is 100% ego, always wanting to be told how good he is - The problem is, in a team sport, that sort of character will always create problems. Its no coincidence that he has had several incidents which have led to him leaving clubs, many of which have been caused by dressing room unrest.

The funny thing, is at any level of team sport, you come across egotists like KP....Having played cricket for many years, I've come across quite a few Pieterson-type players, and most usually end up spitting their dummies out and leaving, much to the amusement of their team mates, who usually can't stand them, but put up with them simply because they are useful to their side.

I see a similar ending to this episode, and a similar response of 'good riddance' from his team mates.

If we were going to give it a proper go, surely Prior had to come in at first drop. Then if he got out, revert to type and bat it out. Even then, if we ever looked like getting close, Smith could easily have shut it down. Still, some fun and games for the paying and non-paying crowd alike.


Slightly peeved that with the number 1 spot on the line we didn't give it a better go for the first 3 wickets or so. I know it was a major risk but sometimes you have too.

KP is just showing himself up as an idiot.

Gutted I couldn't get today off work to go over to Old Trafford, seems I'm missing some classic Mitchell Johnson.

Pfft. Work is over-rated. And what if I've engineered everything so it works perfectly? (I haven't)
