Explosive England batsman Kevin Pietersen paid a surprise visit to his Delhi Daredevils teammates by turning up at their training session at the Ferozeshah Kotla here Friday.

Pietersen, ruled out of the Indian Premier League (IPL) due to a knee injury, was seen having a long conversation with skipper Mahela Jayawardene and opener David Warner.

He watched the entire practice session of his team ahead of their clash against the Rajasthan Royals Saturday. The 32-year-old, who was seen wearing knee braces, is in the national capital on a personal visit.

The Daredevils lost their first match of the sixth edition of the IPL against defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) Wednesday.
