 Pietersen expresses concerns over Champions Trophy decision
 Updated at: 1447 PST,  Saturday, July 26, 2008
Pietersen expresses concerns over Champions Trophy decision LONDON: Kevin Pietersen says he has serious reservations about travelling to Pakistan for the Champions Trophy later this year amid growing security fears.

"I've definitely got reservations - 100% - about going to Pakistan," the England batsman told British radio.

He also believes players should not be forced to play if they do not want to.

"I don't think pressure should be put on any individual, especially when you realise your life could be at risk," added the 28-year-old Hampshire star.

After speaking to ECB chief executive David Collier, Pietersen is confident that the players will not be put in a difficult position.
