Sri Lanka's Kumar Sangakkara has revealed that he expects to see Kevin Pietersen back among the Surrey squad for the summer.
The former England batsman, who was axed by the ECB in February last year, is believed to be keen on playing county cricket in a bid to boost his chances of an international recall.
The 34-year-old is due to represent the Sunrisers Hyderabad in the Indian Premier League, but reports have claimed that Surrey want to re-sign him if he is permitted to leave his contracted commitments behind.
Today, Sangakkara, who is due to join Surrey himself, fuelled the rumours by telling Sky Sports News: "I'm looking forward to playing at Surrey, and KP's coming back I hear, so that will be very exciting in the dressing room."
Pietersen recently admitted that he will "do anything" to get back into the England fold.
