Expansive with the bat and just as much with his personality, the South African-born Kevin Pietersen is a big-hitting No 5. Shunning his home he favoured of England (his eligibility coming courtesy of an English mother).
His first game for his adopted home was ironically against South Africa in 2005 where he silenced hostile receptions with an unbeaten century in the second ODI at Bloemfontein. Highlights in his career include a pair of 50s in his debut against Australia as well as an impressive 158 on the final day at The Oval, to secure the draw that England needed for a first Ashes triumph in 18 years.
