Kevin Pietersen was actually getting in to the form in the IPL tournament in their 5th match against Delhi Daredevils.He became the top scorer for the team by taking 37 runs in just 25 balls consisting of 2 fours and 2 sixes.But the unwanted switch-hit had got him out in the delivery of Daniel vettori of new Zealand.Daniel Vettori bowled him in the third ball of the 10th over.However,IPL Delhi won the match by 6 wickets.

This is not the first time he is trying this shot.He had successfully played this shot in a one Day International against New Zealand in june 2008 in which he smashed two sixes in the over of Scott Styris.
