Kevin Pietersen has partnered with Google Gemini and uploaded a post on social media. He was seen playing with the kids in the video, which was also an advertisement for The Switch and Gemini's partnership. 

“Today, The Switch is partnering with Google Gemini to redefine how cricket is experienced by fans around the world. YouTube is the epicentre of cricket fandom - it’s where the game lives, breathes and connects people globally - and The Switch sits right at the heart of that. Gemini has become a real creative teammate for me - it allows us to move faster, think bigger, and give fans something they haven’t seen before. For me, this is about pushing the boundaries of how cricket is shared and experienced.”
