Kevin Pietersen will return home, to KwaZulu-Natal, to play for Dolphins in South Africas T20 competition in the upcoming season. Pietersen, who was born in the provinces capital Pietermaritzburg, has signed a five-match deal with the franchise, which will see him compete in the second half of the tournament. He will also be available for the knockouts should the team qualify.This will be Pietersens second stint with the franchise, after he had contributed significantly to their run to the final last summer. Pietersen made seven appearances for Dolphins and finished as the second-highest run-getter, behind Quinton de Kock, with 401 runs, including two hundreds and two fifties, at an average and strike rate of 80.20 and 172.84 respectively.Im as excited as anything to have signed with Dolphins again, Pietersen said. I had such a wonderful time with them last season and I really enjoyed the team, the camaraderie and the competition so it was a very easy decision to sign again for this seasons T20 competition. It will be great to getting back onto the cricket field again and Im really looking forward to seeing everyone in Durban again as well.Apart from being the highest profile player so far to be part of South Africas T20 tournament - which continues to struggle to attract international names due to the declining Rand and the scheduling - Pietersen is one of only two internationals alongside Imran Tahir to be named in Dolphins squad for the upcoming season.Dolphins had lost their South African stars David Miller and Kyle Abbott to Knights and Warriors respectively, in an off season, which also included the departure of three other players - Jonathan Vandiar and Daniel Sincuba - the CEO Pete de Wet and coach Lance Klusener.That has left newly-appointed coach Grant Morgan with the task of rebuilding the franchise. Morgan has already worked with Pietersen, during a stint at Royal Challengers Bangalore in the IPL, and hoped Pietersen could make a big impact for Dolphins as well.I was privileged enough to spend some time with Kevin during my time at Royal Challengers Bangalore in the IPL back in 2009. Kevin was captain of that side and made an indelible impact on all the players, especially the youngsters, Morgan said. He is a world-class player in all formats of the game and in T20 he is no doubt one of the best there has ever been. Diontae Johnson Womens Jersey . After Mondays hard-fought loss, the wait seemed longer than usual. Getting set to go their separate ways for a short Christmas break, the Raptors coach credited his team for their effort on a seemingly impossible three-game road trip, urging them to build on that success when they get back to work at the end of the week. Benny Snell Jr. Steelers Jersey . With the short-handed Warriors needing help from someone -- anyone -- to stop a three-game skid, ONeal returned from right knee and groin injuries that had sidelined him for four games and put up season highs with 18 points and eight rebounds. It was just enough to help lift Golden State to a 102-101 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday night. http://www.steelersrookiestore.com/Steelers-Troy-Polamalu-Jersey/ . Dallas hasnt ruled out the star quarterback for Sunday nights game against Philadelphia, but all signs point to Romos back injury pushing Kyle Orton into the starting role after two years of limited play as the backup. Surely Ortons name isnt the first that comes to mind for fans wanting a change after years of damaging interceptions, fumbles or, most infamously, the field goal flub when Romo dropped the snap on a kick that could have won his first playoff game in 2006.
