Pietersen
I like the IPL but the majority of English don't. Do you think that it's jealousy?
Perhaps Pieterson is just a mercenary
England 'jealous' of IPL - Pietersen

I once slogged 30 runs in an over.
WHERE IS MY IPL CONTRACT!!!!!!!
It was epic slogging by the way, even if I do say so myself.....and it included an inside edge past leg stump for 4.
I think I picked a 4 for not many in that game if I remember correctly, I'm stunned I haven't had a call from the BCCI...

its funny how people just take a quote form anywhere and start disrespecting a player. U guys might have read this somewhere, but i watched the video in which piterson talks about why england dont like watching ipl and etc, no where does he use the word jeoulosy.
so i guess lesson for most of you is do some research before taking a player down.

Did any of you actually read the article and his comments in full? It's hard to argue with much of it, maybe the jealousy part.
Loved the bit about "second-rate Australians"

Don't think theres any jealousy 4 IPL, Ithink its great but remember it clashes with our season thats why not many English players are involved. Plus all coaches are Aussies SA NZ INDIAN PAKISTANI'S so they go with players they know, which is fair enough. BUT THE IPL IS ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT.
