Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Kua wikitoria te puni a Kevin Pietersen i te pakanga PR ki te Poari Kirikiti o Ingarangi me Wales me te kore e karanga i tetahi awhina o waho. Kua whakaarohia ko te huarahi i kaha ai te KP ki te ope o nga kaimahi pāpāho a te ECB i nga wa katoa na te mea ko ana kaihoko, Mission Sports Management, i awhina i nga tohunga ki te arahi i ta raatau rautaki. Engari ko te kaihoko a Adam Wheatley, ko ia te kaiwhakarewa o te kamupene me Sir Ian Botham, e kii ana kua oti nga mea katoa i roto i te whare mai i te whakauru poto o te kaiwhakahaere o mua o Sun, a David Yelland i te wa i whakauruhia ai a KP ki te kapa Ingarangi i te tau 2012. I eke a Kevin Pietersen ki te 170 mō Surrey i te kapa The Parks i a ia e whai ana kia whakahokia mai ia ki te kapa Ingarangi. I kii a Wheatley: 'Kua noho tahi matou me Kevin hei roopu me te whakamahere i te huarahi pai ki mua. He āwhina ki ngā pāpāho pāpori, he tata ki te 2.5 miriona ngā whai a KP i runga i Twitter. 'Kua tino hē te whakamāramatanga a te ECB i te āhuatanga. Kāore e taea e koe te whakamārama tonu i tētahi. E rua tonu ngā taha o te kōrero, ā, ki taku whakaaro kua mōhio te iwi i tēnei wā.' Wheatley, kotahi i runga i te taua poari Grimsby Town rite te tiamana hou o te ECB Colin Graves, tāpiri: 'Kua whakamaoritia kupu o Colin e pā ana ki KP o heke mai Ingarangi tūponotanga i roto i ngā ara rerekē engari whakapono tatou i reira te he papa ma.' Kua āwhina ngā māngai a Pietersen i a ia ki te whakatakoto i te ECB me te kore āwhina mai i ngā mātanga o waho. I roto i ngā take maha e tika ana kia whakatauhia e te ECB i a ia e tuhi ana i tētahi whakaahuatanga mahi mō tā rātau kaiwhakahaere kirikiti hou, he aha tonu te mahi a Andy Flower ki te whiwhi £300,000 i te tau hei kaiwhakahaere hangarau o te kaiako rangatira - te nui ōrite o te moni i riro i a ia i a ia e whakahaere ana i te kapa Ingarangi. Ano hoki, ko tana taitara o naianei kaore i tino rereke mai i te 'kaiwhakahaere o te kirikiti' e hiahia ana te ECB ki te whakatu, a ka taea te arahi ki te raruraru mo te kawenga mo te aha. He mea whakamiharo, i puritia a Flower e te ECB i runga i te nui o te moni <unk> hei whakawhetai mo nga ratonga i tukuna <unk> i te wa e tika ana kia pakaru i muri i te whakama o Ashes Down Under. Kei te whiwhi tonu a Andy Flower...
Kua āhei a Kevin Pietersen ki te whakawātea i ngā kaimahi pāpāho o te ECB. E ai ki a Adam Wheatley kaore he awhina o waho a Mission Sports Management. He rite tonu te whakaahuatanga mahi a Andy Flower ki te kaiwhakahaere hou o te tūranga kirikiti. Ko te kaikorero o mua o te whanau Glazer a Tehsin Nayani e tuku pukapuka ana. Ko Shivnarine Chanderpaul o West Indies e tumanako ana ki te takaro ki tana tama a Tagenarine.
