Pietersen "tweets" being dropped from T20 and ODI squad

[Dr. Pepper]

Don't really have a news link but they're on about it on Sky Sports News, and it's all over twitter now. He basically tweeted that he'd been dropped from the T20 and ODI squad and it was a fearsome tweak up. Also he's joined Surrey.

Lol what an absolute idiot.

Here is a news link. It will be updated during the day.

Yeah was just posting this in the Pakistan vs England thread.

I'm quite glad he's been dropped to be honest. He's been out of form for such a long time that his position had to be questioned.

Who'd you think they'd bring in?

 

[Dr. Pepper]

I hope Ravi Bopara gets another chance. Or maybe bring in James Hildreth and shuffle the order around.

A quickly deleted tweet by Kevin Pietersen. Expect new twitte... on Twitpic

What a pillock.

:laugh

Themer added 8 Minutes and 47 Seconds later...

That message just popped back up on his tweets. Why would it do that unless he put it back up?

 

[ZexyZahid]

I am reading this Twitter account now and I don't see that message.

Anyway he received 4 hours ago a parking fine. :laugh What a great day for him.

Are other English cricket players reacting to this?

Something else: I checked out James Anderson's twitter account and he gave a link to a Youtube video where AB de Villiers was singing. :laugh

what a twazzok

 

[Themer]

I am reading this Twitter account now and I don't see that message.

It was taken down straight away again. It came back up for about a minute when I posted about it coming back.

I've been checking out twitter and came across Swanny's twitter.

I'm going to say this once to end all doubt; no I am not the new torso model for Calvin Klein

What a ledge

 

[Themer]

Sky Sports News: Kevin Pietersen has been dropped and will make his debut for Surrey tomorrow.

Makes sense. He needs time in the middle and it allows us to blood some more younger player in the ODI series against Pakistan what with the having a weakened line up

I suppose this will be carried out then:

No surprises here if he is dropped because he doesnt deserve his place as he didnt have a great series with the bat

 

[barmyarmy]

Bloody shame that we might be deprived of Swann's tweets because Tim Bresnan and KP are both idiots.
Don't understand why they're dropping him for limited overs cricket unless they want him to get some time in the middle for Surrey in the CC. Think Surrey only have two games left anyway.

Arrogant twat, and LOL at quickly deleting it.

Meh, the world doesn't need to hear another sound bite of a player lumping on platitudes about being dropped. It's just news for its own sake. Let's have more indignant and slightly embarrassing responses. Stuff that people are interested in.
