Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Kei te haere tonu a Kevin Pietersen ki te tākaro i te Caribbean Premier League o tēnei raumati mō ngā St Lucia Zouks. I whakapumautia e nga kaiwhakahaere te raupapa i te Turei, i roto i te panui panui e whakariterite ana i a Pietersen hei tetahi o ona whetu - i te taha o te West Indies nui-hitter Chris Gayle, Martin Guptill me Jacques Kallis me etahi atu. I whiriwhiria e Pietersen te tuku i te nuinga o tana kirimana Pirimia Inia me Sunrisers Hyderabad i te marama e whai ake nei, i te marama o Mei ka taea e ia te whakaae ki tetahi kirimana hou me Surrey. I tirotirohia e Kevin Pietersen he whakakorenga mai i tana kirimana IPL kia taea ai e ia te whakaae ki tetahi kirimana hou me Surrey. Kua tae atu a Pietersen ki Ahitereiria mō te kapa Kirikiti o te Ao, ā, e tohu ana tēnei pikitia kei te raru ia i te wā o te wā. Ko te kaitakaro whutupaoro rongonui, i peia e Ingarangi i te tau kua hipa i muri i to ratou hinganga o te Ashes, e tumanako ana kia hoki mai ki te kirikiti kawanatanga e wha-ra ka taea pea te ara mo te whakamaharatanga o te Whakamatau. Ko te tumuaki o te Poari Kiriiki o New England me Wales, a Colin Graves, i kii pea ka taea, mena ka pai te mahi a Pietersen. Kua kī te 34-tau-tau ka'mahi ia i ngā mea katoa' ki te tākaro anō mō Ingarangi, ā, e moemoea ana kia hoki mai ia mō te tukinga anō o te Ashes o tēnei raumati - he raupapa e rere ana i te 8 o Hōngongoi ki te 24 o Akuhata. I whakaae a Pietersen i te wa tata ki te hoki mai ki te takaro mo nga Zouks, pera i a ia i te raumati kua hipa. Heoi, ko ana taunahatanga ki a raatau ka raru pea ki tetahi waahanga o te pungarehu - me ona tumanako ki te haere tonu ki te akiaki i ana kereme me te rere mo Surrey. Kāore te kaitakaro whutupaoro nō Awherika ki te Tonga i whakarere i tana hiahia kia karangahia ia mō ngā Whakamātautau Piri i tēnei raumati. Ka tīmata te wā CPL i te 20 o Hune, ā, ka mutu i te 26 o Hōngongoi, ā, e whakapono ana te kaiwhakahaere o te whakataetae kirikiti o te ao, a Tom Moody, ka tae atu a Pietersen. 'I tēnei wā e kite ana ia i a ia anō hei wāhanga o te CPL, kua whakaritea e ia, ā, ka nui te tākaro kirikiti a te kaunihera i taua wā,' i kī ia ki te paetukutuku mana o te CPL. 'Kāore mātou e kite i te huringa, kāore anō ia kia tohu i te take (ki te whakamutu) engari mēnā ka tīpakohia ia i roto i tētahi tukinga Whakamātautau Pōtae ka haere katoa...
I tākaro a Kevin Pietersen mō St Lucia Zouks i te tau kua hipa, ā, kua whakaae ki te tākaro. Engari ko ngā rā o te Caribbean Premier League e ōrite ana ki ngā whakaritenga a Surrey. I whakaaetia e Pietersen he kirimana hou ki te kaunihera i a ia e whai ana i te hokinga mai o Ingarangi. Ka ōrite hoki ngā Whakamātautau Piri ki ngā rā o te whakataetae Karipiana.
