Sacked batsman Kevin Pietersen has said that he would love the opportunity to play cricket for England again.
Pietersen, who is fourth on the list of England's Test run-scorers, was informed in February that he would not be considered for selection again.
According to the BBC, Pietersen said that he has always said that he would love to play for England again, adding that certain things have put a halt to that, but he is 34 and his body feels great.
Pietersen, who was part of the England team whitewashed by Australia last winter, added that his resume is OK and his job application is still there.
England has played eight Test matches without a victory and last month suffered their first home defeat against Sri Lanka in a series that consisted of more than one match.
