England batsman Kevin Pietersen has insisted that he will continue to use Twitter as a way of comment, despite being in hot water over remarks made about a TV pundit.

Pietersen criticised Sky Sports pundit Nick Knight last Friday by sending a tweet describing the former England left-hander's work as "ridiculous".

Pietersen insisted he would continue to use the site, despite the possibility he could be fined under the ECB guidelines for players using social media.

The 31-year-old was punished for a similar offence in 2010 for tweeting comments after being dropped by England.

Speaking of the possibility of toning down his views on Twitter, Pietersen said: "No, not at all, no. I won't stop tweeting, no."

Pietersen had a disappointing first Test against the West Indies, making 32 and 13 in the two innings at Lord's.
