Kumar Sangakkara: 'Wonderful if Pietersen had been recalled'

Kevin Pietersen's Surrey team mate Kumar Sangakkara, widely regarded as one of the greatest batsmen of all time, thinks Pietersen should return to the England fold after yesterday scoring a career best triple century.

“In cricket it’s not about who you like, but who adds the most value to the team,” he said.

Sangakkara added “It would have been wonderful if he’d been recalled.”
