After the conclusion of the India-England series, former England cricketer Kevin Pietersen took to social media to share a special gift his son, Dylan, received from Virat Kohli. The Indian batting star sent a signed jersey, which Pietersen shared on Instagram, expressing gratitude and mentioning how well it fit Dylan. Kohli and Pietersen share a strong bond from their playing days, and this gesture highlighted their camaraderie.
Pietersen was part of the commentary team for the India-England series, where India dominated, winning the T20I series 4-1 and sweeping England in the ODIs. The former cricketer was vocal about England’s poor preparation, revealing that the team did not hold a single practice session after losing the first ODI and the T20 series. He noted that Joe Root was the only player to have a net session after the Nagpur match.
Pietersen criticized England’s lack of commitment, stating that no player could honestly claim they had done everything possible to help their team win. His remarks added to the post-series discussions, emphasizing how India’s superior preparation and form led to their dominant performance against England.
