Kevin Pietersen tells England not to practice in bizarre advice after Ashes defeat

'DO NOT GO TO THE NETS!'

Kevin Pietersen has given some bizarre advice to the England side after their Ashes humiliation and told them not to bother practicing ahead of the fourth test. England's torrid time down under continued after they were bowled out for 68 in the first session of the third test to gift Australia the victory by an emphatic innings and 14 runs. Following defeat at the MCG, several comments have been made about the decline in red ball cricket from the England side, but with two Tests still to play in Sydney and Hobart the rest of the series will be about damaged limitation for the tourists. But Pietersen has said that England's embarrassing display shouldn't have come as a surprise to anyone and that the team should stay away from the nets ahead of the Fourth Test. Speaking on his Twitter account he said: "If you thought that this Ashes trip for the England players was going to be anything less than a shambles, you’ve missed the lead up and you didn’t watch the tour of India!
