“Over & out, India! Injuries are all part of the job! Horrible tear in my calf! Sad to be leaving a really great bunch of boys but looking forward to being back with my family! London bound for a summer off! Vacation till November!Bye for now!, KP xxx,” Pietersen wrote on his Instagram account.
The 35-year-old batsman had also posted a picture of himself in a wheelchair in the dressing room, with strapping on his calf, alongside the word “Urgh!” on Facebook soon after the match against Royal Challengers Bangalore.
