Kevin Pietersen tweets reminder to England selectors

By , Features Editor
Former England batsman Kevin Pietersen tweets a cheeky reminder to the selectors as they meet to pick the squad for the upcoming Sri Lanka Tests.

Kevin Pietersen sent a tongue-in-cheek message to the England selectors this afternoon.

It was decided in the wake of the winter's Ashes that Pietersen would no longer represent his country, with concerns raised over his attitude and the Surrey player's relationship with the rest of the squad.

However, ahead of a meeting to decide which players will make up the team for the upcoming series with Sri Lanka, batsman Pietersen tweeted: "England selectors meeting today...I'm ready to go! Fancy Lords next week...I'm a number 4 batter & bowl off spin. #KPforLords."

The 33-year-old scored 8,181 runs during his 104 Test outings for England.
