All you have to do with kp is look at his history. Dom cork picked up on it for sky yesterday.
Back in sa he fell out with the main people over the quota rules or something like that
Notts he fell out with the captain and ended up having his stuff thrown out of the window and told he'd never play there again
Hampshire, cork said something happened and kp said he'd never play for them again.
England he stabbed moores in the back and gave the ecb an ultimatum of him or me and both got the boot
Slaggs andrew strauss off via text to the south africans although the texts have never been published. But to make things worse he turns around and says 'its not easy being me in the dressing room'. Sorry when you slag your team mates off, were you still expecting a bed of roses? Oh he also criticised james taylor saying he was too small to play international cricket...
Alistair cook pulls all the stops out to get kp back in the squad and manages to do so. Only for kp to seemingly throw a wobbly in aus and stab cook and flower in the back and bring them under scrutiny.
Releases a book and names names and drags those names in the mud, be it true or not. Again puts cook under pressure.
But still he wants to go back into the team where those very people who he tarnished are playing and are playing quite well individually.
You can understand why he isnt back in the side. Forget match winning hundreds. Englands middle order is actually in some kind of form, and two of those are young players for the future and you would think it is taylor waiting in the wings to replace bell, the odds are kp would disrupt the whole side drastically in a time where it is very much unneeded.
Unfortunately for the ecb they will be portrayed as the pantomime villain as we only hear kps sickly sweet side of the story and the ecb wont disclose the 'facts' or at least their side of the story.
It feels like they are protecting him for old times sake and all he is doing is kicking and punching and making it very difficult.
