Following a miserable tour to Sri Lanka, Kevin Pietersen will be intent on filling his boots against a New Zealand attack that may well be powerless to stop him.

Sometimes I feel sorry for Eddie – not often, of course, but every now and again I’m really broken up for the poor old git. Winter time is a terrible time for him and he mopes around the house all day shivering, just waiting for the new cricket season to arrive.
It occurred to me this afternoon that I’d never bothered to properly introduce myself in last week’s column. So for those of you who’ve never found yourself being triggered by my right index finger, here’s the first draft of my autobiography.
Many things came out of India’s Test series in Australia – they tend to when these countries meet, really. There was the usual mixture of the good, the bad and the ugly – and it is certainly the ugly that will linger longest in the memory, with the SCG Test and subsequent fallout placing a terrible stain (as well as strain) on the game.
To introduce myself I am Andrew Gale and am currently a professional cricketer with Yorkshire County Cricket Club. I have been with the club for the last five years and have come right through the junior ranks before making my debut 3 years ago. Since then I have been a regular in the one day format and now hope to cement a place in the championship side. I have also represented England at U15 and U19 level.
