Former England batsman Kevin Pietersen has at last walked off into the sunset. The match between Quetta Gladiators and Islamabad United in the Pakistan Super League (PSL) on Thursday turned out to be his last game.

Pietersen didn't do much for the Gladiators this season but they were still good enough to make the play-offs. But with his team's next game scheduled to take place in Pakistan, the 37-year-old called it quits since he had already announced he wouldn't extend his commitment beyond the United Arab Emirates (UAE). 


He took to Twitter the next day after the match and announced his decision in a subtle way, leaving everyone to speculate.  



However on Saturday, Pietersen tweeted again and this time he was much clearer in his message. 


 




Pietersen fell foul of the England and Wales Cricket Board following the 2013-14 Ashes debacle. He was thrown out of the team shortly after and never returned amidst several allegations of rift-fuelling behaviour against him by his own teammates.
