Alastair Cook\u2019s international career could just about be over, according to Kevin Pietersen, who says the former English captain has no fire in his belly.<\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/h3>\n

\u201cIt looks like Cook is not very interested,\u201d Pietersen has told ESPNcricinfo<\/a>.<\/h3>\n

\u201cJust the way that he\u2019s got out, the manner of his dismissals and also the way he\u2019s walked off the field once he\u2019s got out. That\u2019s the sign of a bloke who goes, \u2018You know what? Maybe my time is up\u2019. But he\u2019s also quite resilient, so can he turn it around?<\/h3>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s a wonderful player and has been for England for a hell of a long time. This will be his 150th Test match, so you never know.<\/h3>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s got a Test hundred at the WACA before. But who knows? That fire burns in your belly for a number of years and then eventually it starts to go out. I had spotted it before the series and there\u2019s certainly no signs at the moment to prove there\u2019s any fire in Cook\u2019s belly.\u201d<\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n
