Also that at the ECB award presentation, Swann's career was commemorated but not KP's.

Thankfully The Sun newspaper is under a paywall, meaning such tittle tattle is not widespread.

The first time since the end of his career that KP has really stuck his head of above the parapet, which given the huge target stuck on it, probably isn't the best of ideas.

Didn't a journo make up a story about him, and he pointed out the story wasn't true. Really you would expect that. If he said nothing, the assumption would be the story is correct.

It can be said once, there is no need to keep going on about it.

and it doesn't need to be done publicly, private messaging does exist.

He was responding to a public statement! He absolutely had good reason to respond publicly. What would he achieve doing it privately?

AFTER he sent out the immediate message, I meant.

Its all a publicity stunt because England play tomorrow.

Etheridge and KP are colluding? Doesn't seem likely. KP responded to something he had no control over. The game tomorrow is irrelevant.
