Yes, we have beaten a relatively weaker Aussie team but bear in mind, that man-2-man ENG is far more strong on experience and balance. KP and ENG will be tougher competitors than the current OZ team.

England is not as strong as Australia. The arrogance of Peiterson is another aspect to help India defeat England.
I know the writer likes English and his language is Oxfordian... atleast he pretends to know the language really well.... here is why ""Off it, the sangfroid is evident. And when it comes to the talking bit, he prefers to be parsimonious in the use of words,"" Please you are not writing a thesis in doctorate, ur just reporting that Peterson has said.. then why all the fancy words?? !!

And his English is archaic. Nobody goes around writing 'parsimonious' anymore. It's a ploy to hide stylistic incompetence.

well you are correct.talking about cricket KP's biggest challenge is this India tour.India are on song dictating terms to the Aussie team.The confidence is sky high whereas KP has very few prominent players like Bell,KP,Andrew,Steven in ODI's.I think India will easily dominate this England team,even though Peiterson brings freshness.KP is fine cricketer but to win series in India for this england team,its impossible if you consider so many cricketing factors,compare cricketing skils,compare the players.KP better luck next time when Sehwag,Sachin,Dravid and Laxman may retire from test.Not to mention Harbhajan an zaheer.Till then just enjoy taj mahal.

It is a trend in cricket authors to priase the players so that they get to meet them.Most of them have never played seasoned cricket so they make generalised comments like "Pietersen is pragmatic, circumspect and confident at the same time". The writer shows immaturity and little understanding about the game of cricket which he may have hardly played on professional terms.This interview is boolsheet and just an attempt to meet Peiterson.Well,somebody had to take this interview and this person did.never take such people seriously.However,only a cricketor like Chappel,Gavaskar,Shastri etc can write good articles as they know the game inside oput and are not writing for excitement of emeting somebody.
