We are not going to get carried away: Pietersen

Mumbai: Kevin Pietersen’s whose mammoth 186 in the first Test of second innings helped England drub India by 10 wickets at the Wankhede Stadium here today said that the win not make them complacent and they will stay grounded.

"Any win in India is a huge win. I played 18 one day games and won one game. I have won more Test matches than one day games in India. Any Test victory or any victory in India is huge," said Pietersen.

"But we are not going to get ahead of us, that is for sure. Last week we got hammered and this week we turned it around," he added.

Alastair Cook also echoed Pietersen’s views and said, 

"We have set the series out really well. We have got two games to go now and it is level. It is a really good performance. Like Kev (Kevin Pietersen) said, we are not getting too carried away. We are going to enjoy tonight," he said.

"Enjoy the victory and we need to, we have got a lot of back to back test matches in India, so we need to rest up well. And make sure when we get to Kolkata, we train with same purpose and intense to win game there," he added.
