London, April 2 (IANS): England coach Peter Moores on Thursday said he is only focused on this month's tour of the West Indies and not on sacked middle-order batsman Kevin Pietersen.
Incoming England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) chairman Colin Graves has spoken of a probable return for Pietersen in the national team. But Moores believes other players who are in the present squad are being neglected.
"My focus is to support (Test captain) Alastair Cook as I always would and the 16 players on this tour," Moores was quoted as saying by bbc.com.
"The frustration for me is that people whose dreams are being made by going on this tour aren't being mentioned.
"They are not getting any air time and it's frustrating. We've got some very, very good players. That's very exciting."
Pietersen, who scored 8,181 runs at an average of 47.28 in 104 Tests, has re-signed for county side Surrey in a bid to earn an England recall.
The 34-year-old was sacked in February 2014 following the 0-5 Ashes whitewash in Australia.
Moores added: "I understand Kevin's a huge subject, but I don't think we can be drawn into that."
