Surrey give you the chance to play like Kevin Pietersen in Stick Cricket game



Nearly all cricket fans would love to be able to bat like Kevin Pietersen - and now Surrey are giving them the chance.

The county have teamed up with addictive online game Stick Cricket and give supporters the opportunity to play as this year's NatWest T20 Blast team against some of the club's legendary bowlers.

That means there could be the rather surreal sight of Pietersen facing Alec Bedser, or Jim Laker trying to deceive Hashim Amla.

As well as all that on-pitch action, between innings will be the MailOnline Mascot Derby, which last year was won by north London.
