I agree with his comments as a whole. However, my respect for him has diminished considerably, because he considers the case of Pietersen and Trott to be different. There is absolutely no was in which their cases are different. Both Pietersen (Natal, Kwa Zulu Natal) and Trott (Boland, Western Province) have played for domestic sides and both came to England in order to pursue higher honours for England. Both did it for their own benefit, so I don't see how KP is different from Trott. I supposed he has let his bias against Trott cloud his better judgement when writing this article! On the whole, it was a rubbish article by MV! :@

Pity that...just found out about your blog! :)
