News comes after batsman makes

News comes after batsman makesEngland cricketer Kevin Pietersen — one of the most prolific run-scorers in the history of the sport — was told this week that he would not be representing England again, the BBC reports.

The news, apparently conveyed to Pietersen by England’s new director of cricket Andrew Strauss, came just hours after the batsman notched his highest-ever individual score, making 326 for county side Surrey against Leicestershire.

“What more can I do?” the 34-year-old batsman said to reporters before the meeting with Strauss. “All I can do is score runs.”

South African-born Pietersen was sacked from the England squad in 2012 over reports that he sent text messages critical of English players to members of the South African team.
