he's a different type of test cricketer to say, tendulkar, in the sense that pietersen is more than happy to take risks, which obviously has its downsides but for all of them, makes a much more exciting game of cricket. The important thing for me is, for as much of a team sport it is, cricket is very personal when at the crease.
The other thing to remember is the tendulkar has had 14 test match ducks to pietersen's 10...but then again, his runs makes up for it I suppose
