It's a man's game, says Pietersen after sledging row

LONDON (AFP) England star Kevin Pietersen has defended his teammates following accusations that the tourists overstepped the fair play line during the first Test against Bangladesh.
Bowlers Graeme Swann and Stuart Broad have apologised for incidents during the 181-run win in the series opener in Chittagong.
Off-spinner Swann swore at Junaid Siddique after dismissing the batsman for 106 in the home sides second innings, while seamer Broad failed to look at the umpire when appealing for a successful lbw shout against Abdur Razzak.
However Pietersen is adamant that England must continue to stand up for themselves, declaring that Test cricket is a mans game.
Its a mans game this, its not a game for girls - especially when youre playing Test match cricket, he told Sky Sports.
You go to the Ashes, I was christened in international cricket and believe me I got a lot worse in my first Ashes series against those Australians than anything weve chucked at the Bangladeshis out here.
So Id say its an absolute load of nonsense they way the boys have been made out to be because I think theyve been brilliant.
We havent crossed the line and I think the boys have been fantastic in everything theyve done.
