Kevin Pietersen: 'Bangladesh deserved win'

Kevin Pietersen has insisted that Bangladesh were deserving victors over England at the Cricket World Cup this morning.

The 15-run defeat has seen England, who were chasing a victory target of 276, exit the competition at the group stage, while Bangladesh advance through to the quarter-finals.

Writing on Twitter shortly after the conclusion of the clash in Adelaide, Pietersen tweeted:

I CANNOT BELIVE THIS! I JUST CANNOT! But, well done Bangladesh! You deserved it! #ENGvBAN

England have won only one of their five matches, with a final group encounter against Afghanistan to come.
