Pietersen hurt by media comments

London: Kevin Pietersen has described as “character assassination” the way media portrayed him in the last one week, when his feud with the then coach Peter Moores hit newspaper headlines.

One national daily had even described Pietersen as “the most hated man in cricket”.

A ‘hurt’ Pietersen, who resgined when the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) snubbed both him and Moores, said he did not expect that kind of treatment.

“I’m not angry with anybody, I’m just a bit let down by the character assassination which has happened since I got back in the country. I didn’t think it was going to be this bad, especially before anyone had heard my side of the story. I didn’t feel I had done anything wrong,” he said. — PTI
