Kumar Sangakkara has come forward, along with many other big names in the International cricket in terms of supporting Kevin Pietersen and has made a mockery of Andrew Strauss and the ECB. Earlier , Andrew Strauss made it clear that Kevin Pietersen will not be playing for England and added that he has trust issues with Kevin Pietersen.
This surely seems foolish on the part of ECB and Strauss and surely there has to be some personal reasons behind it. Earlier, Kevin Pietersen scored a triple century for Surrey.
Sangakkara also added that Strauss wanted Pietersen to advise him regarding the English ODI context ( something Strauss told publicly) but doesn’t have trust on him, which is illogical. Meanwhile, Sangakkara is playing alongside Kevin Pietersen for Surrey.
Here are his tweets supporting Pietersen:
“I don’t trust @KP24 enough for him to play for England but I trust him enough to advise me on ODI cricket” #strausslogic .

A special inning from a very special player @KP24 326. Masterclass. One of the best I have seen
