IPL 2019: Watch Kevin Pietersen Plays Cricket In Street With Young Kids

Cricket has always been a religion in India. You find young kids and the youngsters playing cricket in the streets more often than not. Meanwhile, Kevin Pietersen surprised one of those groups by playing with them. The flamboyant batsman showed his skills to the youngsters by smashing it away from his presence.

Former England captain Kevin Pietersen on Thursday enjoyed some gully cricket in India on the sidelines of the Indian Premier League. Actually, it was his longtime wish to play with young kids in India.

Always wanted to play in India:

He revealed it was one thing he always wanted to do in India and was finally able to fulfil his wish by playing with a bunch of kids on the lanes. Pietersen is in India for his commentary duties in the IPL.

“YOU BEAUTY. Always wanted to stop off on the side of the road in India and play GULEY CRICKET. Today Was A Great Day! #GulleyCricket,” Pietersen wrote with the video.

All in all, it seems like Kevin Pietersen enjoyed the company of young kids in India. He posted a couple of images on his Instagram panel citing that playing Gully Cricket is pretty tough than playing International Cricket.

Currently, Kevin Pietersen is one of the commentators in the Indian Premier League 2019. Previously, he played for quite a few franchises before calling curtains on his glorious career. His last game in IPL came for Rising Pune Super Giant, where he returned back home with an injury.

The 12th edition of IPL commenced on March 23 with the fixture between reigning champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and RCB. Till date, six matches have been played in the tournament, and the fixture between RCB and MI on Thursday will be the seventh.
