:00:10. > :00:13.Tonight at 10pm: Turmoil for rail companies, and the government
:00:13. > :00:16.accepts responsibility. The decision to deprive Virgin of
:00:16. > :00:23.the West Coast franchise is cancelled, as ministers blame civil
:00:23. > :00:26.servants for mishandling the bid. What has happened is unacceptable,
:00:26. > :00:30.deeply regrettable and of course I apologise. We have made a big
:00:30. > :00:33.mistake. The mistake could cost the tax
:00:33. > :00:37.payer �40 million but rail experts say it's the entire system that's
:00:37. > :00:40.wrong. I think this is a disgraceful shambles and it is not
:00:41. > :00:43.the officials fought, it is the fault of the...
:00:44. > :00:47.We'll be asking what impact this might have on the government's own
:00:47. > :00:49.reputation. Also tonight: Police extend their
:00:49. > :00:59.search for a missing five-year-old in Mid-Wales. April Jones
:00:59. > :01:01.
:01:01. > :01:04.disappeared on Monday evening. Her mother made this appeal. There must
:01:04. > :01:08.be someone out there who knows where she is and can help the
:01:08. > :01:14.police find her. A Syrian attack on a Turkish town
:01:14. > :01:18.brings retaliation and an emergency In Manchester, thousands attend the
:01:18. > :01:21.funeral of one of the police officers killed in a gun attack.
:01:21. > :01:31.And back in the fold, but Kevin Petersen apologises for those
:01:31. > :01:32.
:01:32. > :01:42.Coming up in Sportsday on the BBC News Channel: Arsenal and
:01:42. > :01:58.
:01:58. > :02:01.Manchester City are both at home in Good evening. The future of the
:02:01. > :02:07.West Coast rail franchise has been thrown into crisis because of a
:02:07. > :02:11.series of embarrassing mistakes by the Department for Transport. The
:02:11. > :02:13.decision to take the franchise away from Virgin Rail and award it to
:02:13. > :02:23.FirstGroup has now been cancelled, and ministers say the bids were
:02:23. > :02:23.
:02:23. > :02:29.handled incorrectly. Three civil servants have been suspended.
:02:29. > :02:34.At stake, a 5 billion pound contract to run one of Britain's
:02:34. > :02:40.busiest and most lucrative rail lines, the West Coast. Virgin have
:02:40. > :02:46.run the service for 15 years. Two of months ago, they were told
:02:47. > :02:52.FirstGroup would be taking over. Virgin cried foul. The brand new
:02:52. > :02:55.Transport Secretary stuck by the decision. I am satisfied that due
:02:55. > :03:01.diligence was taken by the Department and therefore the
:03:01. > :03:04.intention is to go ahead. It was about to go to court. Then, a
:03:04. > :03:10.remarkable confession. The government had got its sums wrong.
:03:10. > :03:16.What has happened is an acceptable, deeply regrettable and I apologise.
:03:16. > :03:19.We have made a big mistake. So what exactly went wrong? It seems
:03:19. > :03:24.incredible but government experts made basic mistakes in their
:03:24. > :03:29.calculations. They forgot to include inflation and failed to
:03:29. > :03:35.count passenger numbers properly. Areas that will cost the taxpayer
:03:35. > :03:40.�40 million to put right. -- errors. For Richard Branson, it means that
:03:40. > :03:45.Charles de bid again. Everybody at Virgin Trains are delighted.
:03:45. > :03:51.Passengers are delighted as well. We did not want to have to go to
:03:51. > :03:55.court. But his counterpart at FirstGroup saw 19% knocked from his
:03:55. > :04:02.share price today. We were bitterly disappointed because the team had
:04:02. > :04:05.worked so hard over so many mums and put together a great bid. --
:04:05. > :04:11.many months. The government is pointing the finger at civil
:04:11. > :04:15.servants, three has been suspended, but questions will now be asked of
:04:15. > :04:21.the last Transport Secretary, Justine Greening, who spent weeks
:04:21. > :04:25.insisting that all was well. Labour went on the attack today. It is a
:04:25. > :04:30.shambles Paul and �40 million of public money down the drain, and
:04:30. > :04:34.until recently, the old and the new transport ministers were assuring
:04:34. > :04:39.the public and parliament that this was a robust process. It has put
:04:40. > :04:43.intense pressure on the system used for choosing rail contracts.
:04:43. > :04:48.Politicians are deciding to do something which is basically
:04:48. > :04:53.impossible. They are trying to get a 15 year franchise on a fixed
:04:53. > :04:57.price revenue risk basis and it cannot be done. There is no chance
:04:57. > :05:00.this mess will be cleaned up by that time Virgin's contract runs
:05:00. > :05:05.out in December so the big question for customers: Who will keep the
:05:05. > :05:10.trains running with the busy Christmas period and beyond, until
:05:10. > :05:15.this sort this out? Minister's promise that services will not
:05:15. > :05:19.suffer, but they are left with a hard choice. Take the line back
:05:20. > :05:27.into public hands or make the embarrassing phone call to Sir
:05:27. > :05:30.Richard Branson, asking for help. Our deputy political editor is at
:05:30. > :05:34.the Labour Party conference in Manchester. What are your thoughts,
:05:34. > :05:39.James, or the potential impact of this mess on the government's
:05:39. > :05:43.reputation? It is clearly awful timing for the
:05:43. > :05:49.government. Only this year, the government got into trouble at the
:05:49. > :05:55.budget, confusion over tax changes, that prompted accusations of
:05:55. > :05:58.incompetence. Along comes this mistake and it allows Labour in
:05:58. > :06:02.Manchester to reopen that whole question of the government's
:06:02. > :06:07.competence, when the government spent so much time trying to move
:06:07. > :06:10.on from that. This is the last thing David Cameron wanted. He
:06:10. > :06:15.asked for the franchise to be handled properly but it was not
:06:15. > :06:20.done. But the wider question is is this a case of a few civil servants
:06:20. > :06:24.getting their sums wrong or or is this another illustration of white
:06:24. > :06:29.or getting into difficulties whenever it tries to spend large
:06:29. > :06:34.amounts of taxpayers' money on big, private sector projects? Whether it
:06:34. > :06:40.is NHS hospitals, transport, defence procurement and computer
:06:40. > :06:45.systems. We do not know the odds are to that question. Either way,
:06:45. > :06:51.the events of today damage business confidence, particularly in the way
:06:51. > :06:54.they deal with government, and that can only damage the economy.
:06:54. > :06:58.Police in Mid-Wales are extending their search for the missing five-
:06:58. > :07:01.year-old April Jones, who has not been seen since Monday evening. Her
:07:01. > :07:05.mother has appealed for her daughter's safe return and asked
:07:05. > :07:09.the public to help in any way they can. Police are still questioning a
:07:09. > :07:14.local man but insist there are other lines of inquiry. Our
:07:14. > :07:20.correspondent is in Machynlleth with the latest.
:07:20. > :07:24.People are still coming year to volunteer to help, but no longer
:07:24. > :07:28.are members of the public searching the area. That work is being done
:07:28. > :07:32.by specialist teams, the police, the Coastguard and mountain rescue
:07:32. > :07:37.us. It has been revealed tonight that April has cerebral palsy,
:07:37. > :07:41.adding yet more urgency to find her. This report contains flash
:07:41. > :07:47.photography. Across acres of land, the search
:07:47. > :07:52.goes on. Scouring fields and rivers for any sign of April. The five-
:07:52. > :07:56.year-old has now been missing but two days and two nights, and as
:07:56. > :08:03.time goes on, April's family are becoming more and more desperate
:08:03. > :08:06.for any details of where she could be forced stop It's been 36 hours
:08:06. > :08:13.since April was taken from us and there must be someone out there who
:08:13. > :08:20.knows where she is and can help the police find her. We are desperate
:08:20. > :08:30.for any news. April is only five years old. Please, please help find
:08:30. > :08:39.
:08:39. > :08:43.That plea feels ever more urgent as every hour passes. The police are
:08:43. > :08:47.continuing to question Mark Bridger, arrested yesterday on suspicion of
:08:47. > :08:52.April's abduction, and they have released a picture of his Land
:08:52. > :08:59.Rover Discovery. Please, even if you have the smallest information,
:08:59. > :09:02.it could be crucial to this investigation. Mark Bridger had
:09:02. > :09:11.lived in Machynlleth but a couple of months ago, he moved to this
:09:11. > :09:16.small village a few miles further up the River Dyfi. Detectives have
:09:16. > :09:21.been searching his home. The guy was down there. We did not talk to
:09:21. > :09:26.him much. He did not mix with the rest of the village. It is a very
:09:26. > :09:31.close community here. At the moment, all we can do is think about the
:09:31. > :09:37.little girl and try to find her. Child abductions are extremely rare
:09:37. > :09:46.but in such cases, police now have the power to launch a child rescue
:09:46. > :09:49.alert, which insures other people are warned and the case is given
:09:49. > :09:54.huge publicity, with a single national the telephone number
:09:54. > :10:02.issued. Focusing on this fast- moving river now just on the edge
:10:02. > :10:11.of the town. There is also much dense woodland, and any part of
:10:11. > :10:17.this could be a clue for people's whereabouts. Every time we think
:10:17. > :10:22.about it, along comes to my throat. I just want to cry. In the town
:10:22. > :10:26.this evening, there was a vigil for April. The constant sound of
:10:26. > :10:31.helicopters audible even in the Church are a reminder of the surge
:10:31. > :10:35.still going on. All thoughts of the girl with cerebral palsy missing,
:10:35. > :10:40.with a family desperate for her to be found.
:10:40. > :10:44.There is definitely a different mood in this town today. There is
:10:44. > :10:49.almost an uneasy anxiety. But people are holding on to the hope
:10:49. > :10:52.that people can be found safe and well. It is why so many people are
:10:52. > :10:59.still getting involved in the search. Police today have been
:10:59. > :11:01.given more time to question Mark Bridger.
:11:01. > :11:06.NATO ambassadors will hold an emergency meeting tonight to
:11:06. > :11:09.discuss the growing tension between Syria and Turkey. Earlier this
:11:09. > :11:15.evening, Turkey fired shells into Syria in retaliation for a mortar
:11:15. > :11:18.attack from Syrian territory, which killed five people. Earlier in the
:11:18. > :11:27.day, dozens of people were killed in Syria when a series of car bombs
:11:27. > :11:33.exploded in the city of Aleppo. James Robbins reports.
:11:33. > :11:39.Syrian shells fallen civilians, but this is Turkey, in a town near the
:11:39. > :11:44.border. Five people are reported killed, including a woman and her
:11:44. > :11:48.three children. Tonight Turkey announced it had already fired back.
:11:48. > :11:54.The Turkish government, deeply hostile to President Assad, says
:11:54. > :11:59.Syria must be held to account and it is edging NATO allies to help.
:11:59. > :12:05.It is a very, very dangerous situation and all responsible
:12:05. > :12:11.nations need to band together to persuade the Assad regime to have a
:12:11. > :12:15.ceasefire. This is exactly what many people feared. Syria's
:12:15. > :12:22.conflict spreading, inflaming an already divided region. Turkey
:12:22. > :12:27.backs the rebels, lightly armed but without clear leadership. They have
:12:27. > :12:30.taken the ground from a substantial Syrian army, backed by Iran in
:12:30. > :12:35.particular. Assad no longer controls his country but equally,
:12:35. > :12:39.he has not lost it. The longer the Syrian debt lot, the greater the
:12:39. > :12:45.risk that its neighbours and that region will get sucked into
:12:45. > :12:50.confrontation -- the longer the Syrian deadlocked. You would see
:12:50. > :12:57.that proxy tension boiling over. We need the international momentum to
:12:57. > :13:02.form a consensus that can shift the ground away from conflict. But no
:13:02. > :13:08.end to conflict is in sight. Syrian state TV said this was the result
:13:08. > :13:12.of rebel bombings in Aleppo today. After months of fighting, much of
:13:12. > :13:17.the city is already in ruins but Syria has rarely seen suicide
:13:17. > :13:23.attacks on this scale. Most of the over-thirties dead were apparently
:13:23. > :13:28.soldiers in a government controlled district -- over 30. Neither side
:13:28. > :13:32.can defeat the other, and Syria's neighbours are increasingly at risk.
:13:32. > :13:35.In Iran, tear gas has been used by riot police as they clashed with
:13:35. > :13:38.protesters in Tehran, unhappy about the sharp fall in the national
:13:38. > :13:41.currency. The rial has lost around 40% of its value against the dollar
:13:41. > :13:51.in the past week. President Ahmadinejad blamed Western
:13:51. > :13:55.
:13:55. > :13:58.sanctions but his rivals say his Police officers and members of the
:13:58. > :14:01.public have turned out in their thousands in Manchester for the
:14:01. > :14:04.funeral of Nicola Hughes, one of two police officers killed last
:14:04. > :14:12.month in a gun and grenade attack. The funeral for PC Fiona Bone will
:14:12. > :14:17.be held tomorrow. Our home editor Mark Easton reports. This lunch
:14:17. > :14:21.time the normally bustling city of Manchester pauseed to pay tribute.
:14:21. > :14:25.Hundreds of police officers from every rank and branch filed
:14:25. > :14:30.solemnly into the cathedral as thousands more lined the streets,
:14:30. > :14:34.silver badges and service medals shining in the autumn sun.
:14:34. > :14:37.started with Nicola here. I know her family as well, yes. A really
:14:37. > :14:41.tough day for you? Yeah, for everyone, really, regardless of
:14:41. > :14:45.whether they knew her. I think everyone is feeling the same and
:14:46. > :14:52.everyone wants to do her proud today, really. I think they are.
:14:52. > :14:56.think so, yeah, we're trying. you very much.
:14:56. > :15:01.Among the many Mancunians who stopped to pay their respects, few
:15:01. > :15:09.knew Nicola Hughes, but they know what she stood for, the values she
:15:09. > :15:13.lived for, the values she died for. Nicola was one of two unarmed PCs
:15:13. > :15:18.hurrying to answer a routine call. Along with her colleague, Fiona
:15:18. > :15:22.Bone, the pair died in a hail of bullets. Paying tribute to nick
:15:22. > :15:27.larks the Chief Constable said arming police would not be true to
:15:27. > :15:31.the values of the young constable. -- paying tribute to Nicola.
:15:31. > :15:35.understood it is central to our commitment to the minimum use of
:15:35. > :15:39.force to our relationship with the public and to serving citizens
:15:39. > :15:43.rather than controlling them as some arm of the state. Funerals are
:15:43. > :15:48.occasions to mourn what we've lost but also to remind ourselves what
:15:48. > :15:54.we still have. Today the police were paying their respects to a
:15:54. > :16:04.colleague greatly missed. But the public was also paying tribute to
:16:04. > :16:05.
:16:05. > :16:08.those who continue to protect, those who continue to serve.
:16:08. > :16:10.Just a few hours to go before Barack Obama and his Republican
:16:11. > :16:15.challenger, Mitt Romney, engage in the first of three televised
:16:15. > :16:18.debates ahead of the presidential election. The first will be held in
:16:18. > :16:20.the battleground state of Colorado and will focus on the economy and
:16:20. > :16:26.healthcare. Our North America editor, Mark Mardell, has been
:16:26. > :16:29.there to gauge support among the growing number of Latino voters.
:16:29. > :16:32.When the candidates take to the stage tonight we'll want to
:16:32. > :16:42.convince people they speak their language. Sometimes that's more of

:16:52. > :16:55.GROUP IN THEIR OWN LANG WOODGE COULD BE CRITICAL IN THE ELECTION
:16:55. > :17:01.AND IT IS GOING TO BECOME MORE IMPORTANT IN THE FUTURE. ONE-

:17:06. > :17:11.swing state where the Latino vote is hugely important. 60% went for
:17:11. > :17:16.Obama four years ago. Now some are disappointed that he hasn't done
:17:16. > :17:21.more to help the millions of illegal immigrants who have come
:17:21. > :17:25.across the border but Caroline says few find this election a hard
:17:25. > :17:29.choice? We know between the candidates there is only one
:17:29. > :17:33.candidate that supports any kind of immigration reform that is of any
:17:34. > :17:40.value. That's Bam BA Romney would turn back whatever progress we have
:17:40. > :17:47.made. -- that's Obama. So what has are gone wrong? When
:17:47. > :17:51.Ronald Reagan says la teen yos were naturally rer Republicans. He meant
:17:51. > :17:57.they were aspirational and conservative but Mitt Romney seemed
:17:57. > :18:03.to turn Latinos off. He backed a controversial law in Arizona which
:18:03. > :18:07.some said was racial processing. The answer is self-deportation,
:18:07. > :18:10.which is people decide that they can do better by going home bus
:18:10. > :18:14.they can't find work here because they don't have legal documentation
:18:14. > :18:18.to allow them to work here. But in the last couple of months the
:18:18. > :18:24.Romney campaign has really put on a burst of speed, intensely targeting
:18:24. > :18:29.Latinos, especially in swing states like Colorado. No wonder the latest
:18:29. > :18:33.poll gives Obama 70% of the Hispanic vote. Romney has
:18:33. > :18:37.backpedalled and rewriten policy with a much softer focus on illegal
:18:37. > :18:40.immigration. Some say this debate is a chance to punch home the new
:18:40. > :18:45.message. Throw away the rhetoric, throw away the language that turns
:18:45. > :18:48.people off and talk about it to the people in a real leadership way.
:18:48. > :18:53.night fews over Denver, the candidates' intense preparations
:18:53. > :18:59.are at an end. They will soon face each other for a debate which some
:18:59. > :19:02.say could shake-up the race for the White House.
:19:02. > :19:06.Sussex Police are the latest force to reveal a complaint of indecent
:19:06. > :19:09.assault against the late Sir Jimmy Savile. They say they were
:19:09. > :19:12.approached by a woman in 2008 but were unable to pursue the
:19:12. > :19:14.investigation because she wouldn't take the matter further. Our
:19:14. > :19:19.correspondent, David Sillito, has spoken to another woman who came
:19:20. > :19:24.forward this week with her own allegations. Jimmy Savile, there
:19:24. > :19:30.were rumours for years but now finally the stories are being told.
:19:30. > :19:34.They have the transcripts from all the other women. I spoke to Katrina.
:19:34. > :19:40.In 1975 she was just 14. The DJ said he would show her his studio
:19:40. > :19:45.and then on the way back, he took her into his flat. I froze. I just
:19:45. > :19:52.didn't know what to do. I did not know what was happening. I was
:19:52. > :19:55.quite a naive 14-year-old. The worst thing I will never get out of
:19:55. > :20:02.my head is the taste of his cigar breath.
:20:02. > :20:06.He was a star at the height of his fame and it took nearly 20 years
:20:06. > :20:12.for her to pluck up the courage to speak publicly. Then at the last
:20:12. > :20:17.minute her nerve failed. I don't think I'll ever stop beating myself
:20:17. > :20:20.up with not having the courage to speak up and get it out in the open
:20:20. > :20:25.while he was still alive. Now so much has changed in a week. The
:20:25. > :20:29.women that have spoken to ITV. Sussex Police saying an allegation
:20:29. > :20:33.was made in 2008, the BBC's offer it help any police inquiry. There
:20:33. > :20:38.has to be a full investigation. People had to have known something
:20:38. > :20:43.was not right. They might not have realised the extent of it. They
:20:43. > :20:49.might not have realised that there were girls out there being raped,
:20:49. > :20:56.but they had to have known that this man liked young girls just a
:20:56. > :20:59.bit too much. A BBC star a charity fund raiser
:20:59. > :21:05.but for Katrina Rose and others, claims that there was a very
:21:05. > :21:07.different side to Jimmy Savile. A day after unveiling Labour's new
:21:07. > :21:11.slogan, Ed Miliband has been explaining how he plans to
:21:11. > :21:14.translate his One Nation vision into electoral success. Mr Miliband
:21:14. > :21:17.said he planned to unite Britain but admitted there would be "tough
:21:17. > :21:22.times ahead" and he wouldn't be able to "turn the spending taps on",
:21:22. > :21:27.even if he won the next election. He's been talking to our political
:21:27. > :21:32.editor, Nick Robinson. Down the years Labour has had many rallying
:21:32. > :21:35.cries. Slogans meant to cap tuert party's appeal. They line the walls

:21:46. > :21:50.One Nation. I asked him how it was different from the party's past.
:21:50. > :21:53.There is no return to old Labour. It was a party of sectional
:21:53. > :21:57.interest and didn't spend money wisely. New Labour had great
:21:57. > :22:02.achievements but in my view was too silent about the responsibility of
:22:02. > :22:06.those at the top of society and too timid about the powerful influence
:22:07. > :22:10.like the banks. New Labour was Tim bid how to reverse the
:22:10. > :22:16.privatisation of the railways. After today's chaos talk of public
:22:16. > :22:22.ownership is back in fashion. course we need to look at it open
:22:23. > :22:28.mindedly, neither ideologically, about the public private or sectors.
:22:28. > :22:32.It could be private, public or not for profit franchises. In a series
:22:32. > :22:36.of interviews today Mr Millband has been quizzed as his aides listened
:22:36. > :22:38.in intently about what yesterday's barm storming rhetoric really meant.
:22:38. > :22:42.You say you want to be different from other politicians. I think
:22:42. > :22:45.that means telling the truth, saying the next Labour Government
:22:45. > :22:49.will almost certainly have to cut things you like. I think that there
:22:49. > :22:53.will be many people who want to us do things that we are not able to
:22:53. > :22:56.do but, look, I'm going to... cut things you are currently doing
:22:56. > :22:58.But I'm going to be clear. Look I'm going to be clear about the
:22:59. > :23:02.decisions the next Labour Government will make when we see
:23:02. > :23:05.the financial circumstances that we face but I couldn't be sending a
:23:05. > :23:08.clearer message, Nick. I'm sending a very clear message that there
:23:08. > :23:12.will be tough times even under a Labour Government. The spending
:23:13. > :23:17.taps won't able to be turned on. Scarcely mentioned at this
:23:17. > :23:21.conference have been the great figures of Labour's past, the
:23:21. > :23:25.former leaders who shaped the party. One name in particular has been
:23:25. > :23:29.notable by its absence. You talked about a lot of influences on you,
:23:29. > :23:36.yesterday. You didn't talk about your political influences. The man
:23:36. > :23:41.who really gave you your job. Gordon?
:23:41. > :23:45.Yeah, look, I have been influenced by him, I have been influenced by
:23:45. > :23:49.lots of people. What did you learn about why it didn't go right for
:23:49. > :23:54.him that is useful for you? I think the most important lesson I learned
:23:54. > :23:58.is that you need a very, very clear sense of where you want to take the
:23:58. > :24:01.country. I think after ten years of a New Labour Government, it was
:24:01. > :24:07.less clear than it should have been and that's what I have tried to set
:24:07. > :24:10.out with One Nation. A clear sense where Britain would go with Ed
:24:10. > :24:16.Miliband has Prime Minister. Miliband has given Labour a new
:24:16. > :24:20.slogan to stitch on to baerns a new tune to hum, a new band to replace
:24:21. > :24:30.New Labour. The test of One Nation will be what on earth it means in
:24:30. > :24:35.practise. Kevin Pietersen who was depropd
:24:35. > :24:40.England cricket team for sending provocative text messages about his
:24:40. > :24:44.team-mates has been given a new contract but the England and Wales
:24:44. > :24:48.Cricket Board says he will have to undergo a reintegration programme.
:24:48. > :24:52.In Columbo the man who leads English cricket, the ECB chairman
:24:52. > :24:57.and the man who is toing the line. Kevin Pietersen, officially he is
:24:57. > :25:01.now in the process of reintegration and that began with a public apoll
:25:01. > :25:05.ji. I would like it take this opportunity to apologise to my
:25:05. > :25:09.team-mates, all England supporters and the ECB for the situation that
:25:09. > :25:12.has arisen over the last couple of months but thankfully we have drawn
:25:13. > :25:16.a line under it and it is time to move forward. In August Kevin
:25:16. > :25:20.Pietersen was dropped over text messages sent to South African
:25:20. > :25:23.players. He admits they were provocative but he cannot recollect
:25:23. > :25:27.being derogatory about England colleagues. Last month he was left
:25:27. > :25:31.out of England's squad to tour India later this year. Today he
:25:31. > :25:35.signed a short-term dee. He will get a full contract if he
:25:35. > :25:38.reintegrates. -- short-term deal. In essence he is on trial. Coach
:25:38. > :25:43.Andy Flower will decide if Pietersen is disrupting team spirit.
:25:43. > :25:47.Some feel he has done that throughout his career. We were told
:25:47. > :25:50.Pietersen's England team-mates want to make up. I know that major
:25:50. > :25:55.players have contacted us and said they are keen to do so. The senior
:25:55. > :26:00.players have themselves taken that initiative. I'm very encouraged by
:26:00. > :26:05.that. In Columbo the world at Twenty20 continues, there is huge
:26:05. > :26:09.excitement about Sri Lanka's chances. England have gone home,
:26:09. > :26:16.knocked out, admitting they missed Pietersen or at least his batting.
:26:16. > :26:20.Kevin Pietersen has made no secret of his desire to play for more the
:26:20. > :26:26.Delhi Daredevils in the Indian Premier League. England now say he
