Will be awesome for RSA if he keeps this current form up let alone further improvement. A prime candidate to cross 10,000 runs in both forms of the game and get into a very special league of batsmen in the years to come IMO.
Best Batsmen Of next Decade.

as far asform is concerned after peaking, both are pretty similar with yuvi having more flair than pieterson, pieterson crossed 700 batting points first time in jan 2006 against pakistan. yuvi crassed in march 2006 against England. so this shows that both of them have peaked at almost same time in international cricket(u can check this in cricketratings.com by using player comparison tool). this proves that most of the international batsmen peak at a similar age. pieterson was 26 year old and yuvi was 25 year old during peak. so infact according to age yuvi has peaked a year before peiterson. since then both of them were hovering around 750 point mark and currently pieterson has 730 and yuvi has 760 batting points. so here are some stats to chew mr. King Pieterson. here are facts for u that since the peak yuvi is the better batsmen than peiterson. i.e before 2006 pieterson > yuvi, after 2006 yuvi> pieterson. again these are facts upon which u believe. in test i confirm Pieterson > yuvi,just for now, i bet this year yuvi wud peak and chage the tables. and for all those who says yuvi cant get any better than pieterson now? well yuvi is 1 year younger than pieterson.

see something, yuvi has improved in last 4 years and pieterson has a little decline. one more thing for king pieterson who earlier posted yuvi's career avg as 30,he shud get his statbook chekced. yuvi avg 37 and is improving every year.

better than most of the players in the indian team and even Mr. Pieterson. its just that he is not scoring big hundreds, he is getting out in a lot of 90's

india has won almost half the matches sachin played but in those half matches he had scored more than 70 percent of his hundreds i.e 30 out of 42 and avg 57 which is better than his career avg. well this stat shows that sachin is on the way for another recor. record to score 10000 in the matches india has won. i gues that one is even more difficult for anyone to beat

t think these are pretty heavy stats for King pieterson to digest, who allways stood by his own false fact whre as i can give reference to teh Statsguru application of Cricinfo.com - The Home of Cricket so iam here providing proof of what i am saying, by the way dont go on and post that Pieterson is better than yuvi in Test and see his stats blah blah blah, Period, i had sccepted that,for now pieterson is better in test. though both of yuvraj's hundred can when india were strugglling, in 2004 against Pakistan in karachi, india were 30/4. it was a hell of seaming track,i still remmeber how asif bowled sachin,sehwag and laxman in that match. next one came against pak again,india 60/4, he scored a run a ball 169. so its not as if he is a complete failure in test.

KP is miles ahead of Yuvraj, in my opinion, when it comes to what you are looking for in a batsman in your team. As an entertainer, they are evenly matched. Yuvraj is a much, much cleaner striker of the ball.
Apart from Twenty20, though, I'd go with KP on most of my teams.

Yuvraj has moments of magic, but literally everything KP does is magic.
KP > Yuvi, as much as I like him now ()

Jesus,KP > Yuvi any day.
KP has awesome average of 50+ in both formats of the game(Tests and ODI).
Just check out the number of matches KP has taken to reached his 1K,2k,3K...? and you will get idea of whole picture.

Well!
: didn't K.P got out to the same pie chucker moe than a couple of times in the series.i rem he missed a straight delivery and got bowled, OMG everyone knows yuvi barely turns the ball then why the heck Pietersen didnt know. anyway he made a fool out of himself by calling yuvi pie chucker and keep getting out to him.lol
JP Bradman. Definitely could have a Hussey-esque start to this career and then bloom to become the rock of the South African middle order. The guy seems to have everything, defensive mode to play long attritional innings, and a good innovative attacking player as well. Can't him being troubled by many bowlers although probably have to wait and see him on more tours.
