Scored his first ton today against serious opposition (i.e a Top 5 team) since his 259 on this ground against Eng in 2003 as well.

Is that true Gordon? Mental. 5 years without a decent ton. KP's made 13 in 3 years.

None of which are a top 5 side as well you know Nev.

No tons against Ind, Aus, SL and Eng (until today) in that time frame.

That was re: Pietersen and a reply to LLL, I expect. 2 vs SL, 2 vs IND, 2 vs AUS, 1 vs SA = 7.


No. 7. He's scored 6 against WI, NZ and Pak.

No - Pietersen hasn't.
7 - The number KP has scored against top five nations.
He's - KP
Scored 6 against WI, NZ and PAK - self-explanatory.

Though I think Smith's hundred against Asif, Gul and Kaneria deserves some credit. When Pakistan have a full side, I've no doubt they're worthy of top five status.

I personally can't see them being clearly better than any of the top 5 even at full strength.

Asif only bowled 4 overs in that innings and Gul wasn't able to take the second new ball.

Smith is very underrated on this forum. He has played many really important innings in the last 18 months or so

Before this test his average was about the same as KP's who is apparently the best batsman in the world.

Smith's average drops to 46 without minnows. And he always fails against Australia, the best. 16 innings vs Aus and just one 50 to show for it.

JGK - I didn't say KP's the best, I was just asking the question after reading that article.
