Kevin Pietersen
He is probably one of the most controversial players in the history of England cricket. He was one of the many players who were born in South Africa but played for England. KP was the backbone of his side for few years he played and was an important asset for the team but in a series between England and South Africa, he did something vulgar which resulted in him being axed from the team. He texted to his South African friend that captain Andrew Strauss is an idiot. Along with that, he also leaked his weakness to the opposition team. This led to a huge controversy and after that Pietersen place in the team was never fixed. When Strauss took over the charge as the president of ECB, he openly said that he will never allow Pietersen to play for England. Now Pietersen is looking for an opportunity with his home country, South Africa. He will be eligible to play for South Africa from 2018.
