Lasith Malinga showed in Kevin Pietersen's breif innings against him at Galle that thier is a bit of a yellow streak running down the back of this batsman when facing the real quick short stuff.

I hope the selectors and Brett Lee, Shuan Tait and Mitchell Johnson take note of this for the next ashes series.

Pietersen's jumping gloved dismismal from the Malinga bouncer showed fear.

He will get no respite when our bowlers see the frightened whites of his eyes peering through his helmut.

Until his head turns away from the ball of course.
