Hoult was the journalist who reported that the ECB may make a condition of any new contract offered to Pietersen his agreement to waive his right to take future legal action; a clause clearly unenforceable in law and highly unlikely to have been proposed.

I’d take anything he says with a large pinch of salt.

KP is cool in the discussion panel. It will be good if he takes to commentary box after he quits from all levels of cricket. I like his performance in the new role.

It looks like it. Whether we care or not, I don't think many will be surprised.

The message received will be that if you're thought good enough, you'll get away with anything.

If they plan to bring him back into the fold, then do so now and get it over with.
Work expands to fill the time available, so why do today what can be put off until tomorrow.

He is apologising so many times that next time he walks to the crease to bat, the back of his shirt will say "I'm Sorry".

I'd pay good money for KP, Morris, Flower, Cook and Strauss to turn up and belt this out at the presser.

I think they simply want him to state in public what he has apparently done private. If you've heard an apology when was it.

In short they want to want to publically castrate him.

He apologised to the ECB and to Strauss. I can't say this is too much though, because it was too much a long time ago.

He's been pretty magnaminous really. Nothing there about the way the ECB have treated him.

Anyway, glad to have him back. Hope he goes to India.
