Kevin Pietersen added to England's Test squad for India tour

The 32-year-old Pietersen's surprise inclusion in the team for the tour of India was announced by the England selectors today after a series of meeting the star batsman had with senior players earlier this week.

The decision was made after Kevin Pietersen met with Andy Flower, Alastair Cook and a number of other senior players and members of England team management in Oxford.
