New Delhi: Australian coach Darren Lehmann has launched into Kevin Pietersen, urging the Melbourne Stars to dump the maverick batsman after the Stars were beaten in Tuesday night's Big Bash League semi-final.
Lehmann expressed his anger on social networking site Twitter after Melbourne Stars lost by 7 wickets to Perth Scorchers at WACA stadium.
"Time for stars to move Kevin Pietersen on ,spent to much money on him and didn't win. Don't want to listen to his excuses anymore."
Interestingly, Kevin Pietersen is top scorer of Melbourne stars in the tournament's history and leading run-getter in this version of BBL.
However, Stars President Eddie McGuire came in Pietersen's defence and called him crowd favourite.
