Botham was young and reckless and self-indulgent. He convinced himself that he could take everyone along with him on his adventure. It was a fantasy that became a nightmare. Pietersen is more ruthless, experienced and individualistic. He is prepared to make unpopular decisions. Indeed his career tells of little else.The article also links to the scorcard of the match that Pietersen played against England as a youngster with KwaZulu-Natal (alongside Hashim Amla). He batted at 9, scored 61 not out and bowled a remarkable 55 overs in England's only innings.
