James Anderson: No other batsman in the world could have done what Kevin Pietersen did

Kevin Pietersen is one of the finest leavers of the ball in Test cricket.

Not that you'd know it from his innings against South Africa.

To take apart one of the best attacks in world cricket in the way that he did proves what a special talent he is.

Fine knock: Pietersen swung the momentum back England's way

In my opinion no other batsman in world cricket could have played an innings like he did.

Kevin likes to take the game to the opposition, and the way he did that to Morne Morkel and Dale Steyn excited us in the dressing room just as much as it did the crowd.

At various points, like when he was pulling Morkel through midwicket, or hitting Steyn back over his head for six, as a bowler you were left wondering where they could bowl to him next.

I was just happy it wasn't me out there bowling.

At the time James Taylor went in at 173 for four, things could have gone badly against us.

Kevin has brought a win back into the equation.

He passed 7,000 runs here, the fastest to that mark in Test history. And he is now only two away from setting a new record of 23 Test hundreds for England.

Nice to have him, Strauss and Cook all racing for that line; I'm quite certain that they will be the top three on that list before the end of their careers.

It was also great to see Taylor batting with such calm maturity on his Test debut.
