Kevin given the reins

"He likes to challenge us on a daily basis. There are a lot of strong characters in the dressing room and a lot of opinionated people. I sat down with Peter and we had a real good discussion about how we want to take this team forward. I think my position from a player to a captain is totally different and we need to unite and to get on the same hymn sheet."
He said he would lean on people likeVaughan.
"I will always respect what happened in the past and 1 will always ask for advice. 1' m fresh into this and I will need some help. One of the most exciting things is that I have had text messages and phone calls from senior members in the squad who have said they are right behind me."
Chairman of selectors Geoff Miller confirmed that uniting the Test and one-day captaincy was something he had wanted to achieve. Paul Collingwood resigned from the one-day captaincy Sunday.
Miller announced only one change in England's 13-man squad for the final Test against South Africa, with batsman Ravi Bopara replacing Vaughan, which he said was a sign that there was no panic from the selectors with England trailing the four-match series 2-0.
He said the selectors had not contemplated a change of captaincy before Vaughan's resigna-
Nottinghamshire batsman
Samit Patel is the only uncapped player in a 15-man squad for a Twenty20 international and five one-day internationals against South Africa. Wicketkeeper Matt Prior has been recalled.
Pietersen was quoted recently as expressing doubts about travelling to Pakistan for the Champions Trophy next month.
He has also been linked with the Indian Premier League Twenty20 competition.
Asked how the captaincy would affect his participation, he said: "I haven't even thought that far ahead. My concern this week is about how we can salvage pride from this series."
Pietersen was bom and raised in South Africa and played for the Natal provincial team as an off-spin bowler and hard-hitting lower order batsman.
Disenchanted with South Africa's racial quota system he joined Nottinghamshire in 2001, where he quickly established himself as a top order batsman.
Entitled to a British passport through his English-born mother, he qualified for England in September 2004 and was almost immediately picked for England's one-day side for a series in Zimbabwe.
He made such an impact there that he was drafted into the squad for a one-day series in South Africa and despite being jeered by the local crowds he made three centuries in seven matches to announce himself as a player of quality and
big match temperament
He made his Test debut again -: Australia in 2005 and played a major role in England's winning of the Ashes, notably with his innings of 158 in the final Test at the Oval.
Despite being criticised for sometimes being too aggressive and impetuous he has hit 13 centuries in his 42 Test matches and has an average of50.36, placing himself in the top bracket of international players.
Pietersen holed out to long-on when he was on 94 in the third Test at Edgbaston last week.
Asked whether he might hare played differently if he had been captain, he said: "Hopefully I am going to bat exactly the same way. The way Colly (Paul Collingwood) and I played is exactly the way you need to play against South Africa and against Australia. You hare to be positive and aggressive."
