    evin Pietersen has retired from all international limited overs cricket with immediate effect. He will remain available for consideration as a specialist Test match player only.

    Pietersen, 31, has played 127 ODIs and 36 international T20s for England, making his international debut in 2004 against Zimbabwe in Harare. Pietersen has scored 4184 runs at an average of 42 in one-day internationals and averages 38 in international T20 cricket.

    Good decision to retire from carnival cricket. But why quitting ODIS??? Anyway KP. Giving first priority to test cricket.

    ffs he's not giving priority to test cricket! he's still going to play in the ipl and probably more t20 tournaments, hence this decision.

    apparently he only wanted to retire from odis to give him more time to play t20 leagues around the world but the ecb rules stipulate that people making themselves unavailable for odis cannot play international t20s. so the decision to retire from both!

    which again highlights the importance of an IPL window i guess..

    lol @ KP on about issues with his body, stop fking around in India for a month and you'll be alright. its mostly off season for england anyway before the test summer starts. no wonder he is burnt out..

    kp is just a massive prick. retires from t20s with 2 months to go for the t20wc just to force ecb to allow what he wants. this is why i have the utmost respect for malinga.
