4-0 win over South Africa in Pietersen’s first series as captain in July, already seem like a fallacy.
Their Test team will do much better next month, no doubt, perhaps give India a better fight than the Australians did earlier this month, but KP will have to ensure the one-day woes don’t continue unabated right through the seven games, and then spill over to the Tests.
England need to stand up and fight, now, somehow. That’s the pressing issue for them. Not common sense, or the lack of it.
