Former England cricketer Kevin Pietersen rolled back the clock in the fifth game of the ongoing Legends League Cricket 2022 between World Giants and Asia Lions. The explosive batter took his fans down memory lane with a bliไstering knock to help Giants beat Lions comprehensively by seven🐽 wickets.

Chasing 150, Giants lost opener Herschelle Gibbs early in the fourth over when the team’s total was just 28 runs. Then, the Giants came back thanks to a dominating partnership between Pietersen and Kevin O Brien (31 no) for the second wicket. The duo went on to add 100 runs in just 45 deliveries to take the game away from th🐲e opposition.

Pietersen didn’t allow the Lions to capitalise after the early setback, punishing all the bowlers to keep the momentum with the Giants. The right-handed batter smashed a blistering knock of 86 runs off just 38 deliveries with the help of 16 boundaries, including seven humungous sixes. Although Muttiah Muralitharan dismissed Pඣietersen in the 11th over, but it was too late for the Lions as Giants successfully chased down the target within 13 overs.

Earlier, Lions posted 149/7 in their allotted 20 overs, with Asghar Afghan (41 off 26) being the top-scorer for his side. Romesh Kaluwitharana (26 retd hurt) and Upul Tharanga (22) chipped in with some contributions to help Lions reach near the 1꧅50-run mark.

For the Giants, Ryan Sidebottom (2/38) and Morne Morkel (2/24) were the pick of the bowlers. Similarly, Brett Lee (1/27) and Monty Panesar (1/22) bagged one wicket apiece.

Watching Kevin Pietersen bat even years ✤after ❀he last played his last competitive cricket game is such a treat. Those 9 fours and 7 sixes have single-handedly been sufficient to defeat the Lions side that anyway didn’t post a daunting score.
