Kevin Pietersen will return home, to KwaZulu-Natal, to play for Dolphins in South Africas T20 competition in the upcoming season. Pietersen, who was born in the provinces capital Pietermaritzburg, has signed a five-match deal with the franchise, which will see him compete in the second half of the tournament. He will also be available for the knockouts should the team qualify.This will be Pietersens second stint with the franchise, after he had contributed significantly to their run to the final last summer. Pietersen made seven appearances for Dolphins and finished as the second-highest run-getter, behind Quinton de Kock, with 401 runs, including two hundreds and two fifties, at an average and strike rate of 80.20 and 172.84 respectively.Im as excited as anything to have signed with Dolphins again, Pietersen said. I had such a wonderful time with them last season and I really enjoyed the team, the camaraderie and the competition so it was a very easy decision to sign again for this seasons T20 competition. It will be great to getting back onto the cricket field again and Im really looking forward to seeing everyone in Durban again as well.Apart from being the highest profile player so far to be part of South Africas T20 tournament - which continues to struggle to attract international names due to the declining Rand and the scheduling - Pietersen is one of only two internationals alongside Imran Tahir to be named in Dolphins squad for the upcoming season.Dolphins had lost their South African stars David Miller and Kyle Abbott to Knights and Warriors respectively, in an off season, which also included the departure of three other players - Jonathan Vandiar and Daniel Sincuba - the CEO Pete de Wet and coach Lance Klusener.That has left newly-appointed coach Grant Morgan with the task of rebuilding the franchise. Morgan has already worked with Pietersen, during a stint at Royal Challengers Bangalore in the IPL, and hoped Pietersen could make a big impact for Dolphins as well.I was privileged enough to spend some time with Kevin during my time at Royal Challengers Bangalore in the IPL back in 2009. Kevin was captain of that side and made an indelible impact on all the players, especially the youngsters, Morgan said. He is a world-class player in all formats of the game and in T20 he is no doubt one of the best there has ever been. Cheap Air Max 97 Green China . 4 Villanova with a 96-68 drubbing on Monday.

Cheap Air Max 97 . It is a cliché dragged out by fans and pundits regularly when discussions take place around which teams are better than others. Here are some things to watch in the Atlantic Coast Conference for Week 7:GAME OF THE WEEK: North Carolina State at No. 3 Clemson. First place in the Atlantic Division is on the line in this matchup of the only two teams in the division without a conference loss. N.C. State (4-1, 1-0) has won three straight and -- unlike last weeks waterlogged 10-3 win over Notre Dame -- wont have to deal with a muddy track. But the Wolfpack will have to contend with Death Valley -- where they havent won since 2002. Deshaun Watson and the Tigers (6-0, 3-0) have won 12 straight ACC games. Somebody is going to leave Saturday afternoon with control of their destiny, Clemson coach Dabo Swinney said, and somebody is not.BEST MATCHUP: Florida State rushing offense vs. Wake Forest run defense. The Demon Deacons run D has been rather stout, allowing only 118 yards per game and holding five of six opponents to fewer than 160 yards rushing. Theyll get a test from Dalvin Cook and a Seminoles team that has averaged 289 yards on the ground in the last three weeks. Cook checked out of last years meeting early with a hamstring injury but Wake Forest coach Dave Clawson says you can make an argument that they might have the best tailback in the entire country.INSIDE THE NUMBERS: Four ACC players are averaging at least 300 yards of total offense, with Heisman Trophy contender Lamar Jaackson of Louisville leading the way with 462.dddddddddddd6 total yards per game. Since 2008, only once -- in 2013 -- has more than one ACC player averaged 300 total yards. Tajh Boyd of Clemson and Jameis Winston of Florida State did it that year.LONG SHOT: Syracuse might have a shot to beat the 19+-point spread against No. 17 Virginia Tech. The Orange struggled in miserable conditions at Wake Forest -- but that wont be an issue inside the Carrier Dome. Coach Dino Babers fast-paced offense has put up at least 400 total yards in every game but the Wake Forest loss and could put some pressure on a tough Virginia Tech defense that, after knocking North Carolina out of the rankings with a 34-3 loss , might be due for some regression.IMPACT PLAYER: Keep an eye on Virginia QB Kurt Benkert. The East Carolina transfer in his first year as a starter is throwing for 291 yards per game, has thrown eight touchdown passes in his last two games and is coming off an idle week. Now he faces a Pittsburgh pass defense that ranks 13th in the ACC and has given up 10 touchdown passes in its last four games.---Compiled by AP Sports Writer Joedy McCreary in Raleigh, North Carolina.---OnlineAP College Football website: www.collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
