| Pietersen Called up to ODI squad Big Kev has been called up to the ODI squad. He is not replacing anybody. Interesting. I think this move has come in light of Butcher returning home. They need to discover which batsmen will face the Aussies and they are giving Peitersen a chance to show whatg he can do. Good move I say |

| He should have been in the squad in the first place - just taking him to Zimbabwe always seemed daft to me as I can't see how playing against Zim would tell the selectors anything about his ability to play international cricket. |

| Does anyone else think this may be a move so they can rest Freddie in some, if not all the one-dayers - it would make sense to protect him, and Pietersen is the most obvious batting replacement for him |

| Good point. Could be to protect Freddie, but I also think they want to find out what he can do in light of the Butcher situation and the ashes series looming. |

| Just been listening to Hussain and he knows for a fact that Fletcher has been very impressed with Pietersen. He thinks that the management decided a while back that he would play in the ODI's |

| Is Piterson the guy who said he will be the next flintoff.... or something like that? |

The similarity is with the batting style, he knowhere near the sam quality as a bowler.. |

| One thing is for sure: Pieterson is sure to get a "warm" welcome by the South African team and public following his recent outburst about SA cricket.... Should be intersting!!! |
