Jason Roy: England and Oval Invincibles batter backed by Kevin Pietersen

When you're out of form as a top-order batter in white-ball cricket it is hard to turn the tide... just ask Jason Roy.

"Jason is 32 years of age and what I'm sick and tired of in this country is writing people off at such a young age," Pietersen said on Sky Sports. "If Rob Key [director of England men's cricket] is listening, he is England's best player and he has been England's best player for a number of years. What they should be saying is 'back your best players'.

Roy is under pressure with England having failed to win a series in a home summer for the first time 2013 and a T20 World Cup taking place in Australia from mid-October.
