The English cricket player, Pietersen has retired from the post of captain following the series of discomforting events happening in the team and its management. Along with him, the coach Peter Moores has also resigned from his post.

Kevin Pietersen enjoyed a dream period in his initial days as the captain of the team when the English team had a successful run against South Africa. But recently the team had a ugly tour of India where they did not even manage to win one of the matches.

Andrew Strauss is the leading contender to take the place of captain and Andy flower is likely the one to be assigned as the coach.
