Just because someone is capable of hitting a ball very hard and a long way doesn't mean they don't have the ability to bat sensibly when needed. Notice yesterday KP wasn't biffing the ball from ball one. He took nearly as long to get to fifty as Bell did, then he went ballistic after that. He is far more capable of playing the percentages game than Freddie and Jones (and Freddie has proved he can sometimes do it).
