Kevin Pietersen, the former England batter, has offered his perspective on England’s performance. He emphasized that the team persists in dominating the thoughts of their adversaries, despite the Ben Stokes-led side conceding to a defeat in just four days in Visakhapatnam.

While acknowledging England’s loss, Pietersen commended their assertive cricket tactics, which sowed seeds of uncertainty in the minds of their opponents.

“The way they’ve been playing their cricket, they have given themselves the opportunity to live almost rent-free on the opposition’s mind. Because they (opposition) are always thinking ‘what if’,” remarked Pietersen on Monday, as quoted by Inside Sports, reflecting on England’s distinctive playing style that keeps the rivals on edge.
