Sri Lanka v England: Kevin Pietersen plays down switch-hitting controversy But when the bowler sees intent (in the batsman altering his stance) prior to delivering the ball and stops what can happen is we can get a stalemate situation ... the bowler won't deliver because he wants to change his field if he thinks the batsman is going to switch-hit. When we get to that situation the way to move forward is to give the batsman an informal warning, then a formal one for time-wasting. If it happens again it's a team warning under time-wasting by the batting side and it's an automatic five-run penalty. Pietersen has struggled for runs in Tests this winter but he insisted he felt in good form coming into the match. "In the last one-day series in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, and into the T20s, and into the Test series here I have felt in fantastic form so it was just a case of cashing in when you're in good nick," he added. The amount of cricket we play now, it doesn't matter if you are playing one-day or Tests, it all rolls into one. It's just a different approach. I played in one-day mode today. I am also a big sweater and a quick game is a good game. I couldn't have blocked out all those balls and got 50 or 60. Pietersen's dismissal prompted a lower-order collapse and he hinted at an element of frustration in the dressing room. "We have got ourselves in a good position in the Test match but in the last session we may have let ourselves down," he said. Tomorrow will be an interesting day's cricket.'
