Switch hitting madness

Cricket Burbler Dave McCabe previously commented that shot players like Pietersen need to be given greater leeway to play their shots based on the fact that when they come off they can change the match entirely.

But the attempted switch hit in the last over from Harris was complete madness given the situation....surely?

p.s. I still think it's crazy despite him hitting two for 4 in the last over!

Did I say that?! I think I'd like to string him up by his ego outside the Tower of London for a week after he just got out needlessly trying to hit Harris for six. Especially since his dismissal has triggered a mini-collapse...grr!
