Final Test England batsman Kevin Pietersen dropped from Test squad against SA in Lord's

Kevin PietersenA text messages pietersen sent to south african players are the cause for his exclusion from the team on the promising youngster, jonny bairstow has been named as his replacement ECB had given the middle order batsman a chance to explain himself but heard nothing from him to kP wouldn't or could not prove that the texts sent to SA weren't derogatory even after the ECB had given him a further 6 hours this morning and the kp is end of the carrier?.

The bairstow has had an uncomfortable test match against west indies earlier this summer, and who returns in place of pietersen after a century for england lions against Australia A, who will bear the brunt of a pietersen will now have to wait to see if he is selected in England's 15 for in icc twenty20 world cup in sri lanka next month for squad has yet to be announced to that deadline is fast approaching and if he was critical of the likes of andrew strauss his captain and andy flower, the director of cricket, as has been alleged to after a disastrous week pietersen still has an awful lot of apologising to do.

A success of the england team has been built on a unity of purpose and trust to we have made every attempt to find a solution to enable Kevin to be selected we have sadly had to conclude in the best interest of the team for he will miss the Lords test and the south africa lead three match series 1-0 and the final match will be played at the lord's cricket ground on thursday.

England Squad:

Andrew Strauss, Alastair Cook, Jonathan Trott, Ian Bell, James Taylor, Jonny Bairstow, Matt Prior, Tim Bresnan, Stuart Broad, Graeme Swann, James Anderson, Steven Finn, Graham Onions
