LONDON (Reuters) - Former England batsman Kevin Pietersen says he still harbours dreams of turning out for his country despite being controversially axed from the national team.

The 34-year-old had his central contract terminated by the England and Wales Cricket Board following the 5-0 Ashes defeat by Australia, with the governing body saying captain Alastair Cook needed to be able to trust and rely on the backing of all his players.
