strange place to find this thread. (Stupid perhaps)

And NO NO NO

In modern cricket with flat tracks and fast scoring rates, it is very uncommon (and rightfully so) to enforce a follow on, unless 1.) the team that batted first is unlikely to have to bat again AND 2.) the bowlers are reasonably fresh.

This situation certainly didn't meet criteria 1. It was always more likely for Eng to force a win by batting again and setting a target.

"Fast scoring rates" he says back in 2009

This was clearly not the real Kevin Pietersen because his favourite bowler isn't listed as Kevin Pietersen
