Swann "rang up" a weekly Triple M radio program pretending to be Pietersen - with the show hosted former Australian cricketers Matthew Hayden and Mark Waugh.
The-36-year-old revealed his fractured relationship with Pietersen in his book last year but went one step further provide an insight into how the controversial batsman is viewed by his former teammates.
Kevin Pietersen (Graeme Swann): “Hi guys, is anybody there? How’s it chaps? I’m so, so happy to be here with you right now. I look great at the moment. I’ve got new tattoos and they’re shining beautifully in the sunshine. I feel awesome.”
Matthew Hayden: “I’ve got this beauty (from Twitter), then I’ve got a question on the back of it as well: ‘Batting as well as ever and the team have issues with the top order! What a waste, just lying on a beach! I wish I could help!’ And then the muscle sign, the bicep curl emoji. Mate, why aren’t you playing for Surrey if you think you’re top shelf and going for it — what’s the problem?”
Batting as well as ever & the team have huge issues with top order! What a waste, just lying on a beach! I wish I could help! 💪🏻

I played for Surrey, I was told to average highly and I averaged 150 in my time at the bottom half of division two. Sure, one of my innings was 350 not out and apart from that my highest score was 12. It shows KP is a big player, a big-time player. The bicep curl is because I’m beautiful ... Not a lot of people know this, but (Matthew Hayden) called me FIG JAM. It was the nicest nickname because what it means is Flip I’m Good, Just Ask Matty. It showed everyone how high the regard for me was with Matt Hayden. What an awesome guy.”
Hayden: “So Kev, this next tweet: ‘So, so, so, so silly!’ What’s that all about?”
So, so, so, so silly! 👎🏻

Pietersen (Swann): “Well, I like to repeat myself because I sound so good when I say some words. Like so, so, so, so silly. I might say that again, so, so, oh that sounds great. I can’t remember the question but let me tell you that I scored 25 last night off three balls. It may sound impossible — which it is for most guys — but not for me.”
Mark Waugh: “Seriously, did you watch the Test match? Obviously you did. What did you make of the English batting? What do they need to do to improve, apart from getting you back in the team, is there something they can work on that top order?”
Pietersen (Swann): “I didn’t actually watch the Test match — one of my people told me the scores. What I was actually doing was having a net and I was hitting it really nicely, and striking it nicely, so, so nicely, and I think it’s a matter of time before I’m back in the side. Because I’m so, so, so ready to play.”
Hayden: “Have you got any form at all on the board though?”
Pietersen (Swann): “Of course. Haydos I scored 200 against a team who hadn’t won for three weeks, three years ... it doesn’t matter because no matter who KP bats against he will score runs.”
Waugh: “Where was that KP?”
Pietersen (Swann): “It was a practice game in St Lucia, but it doesn’t matter. Those guys bowling were awesome. They had to have a day off school to play, but they bowled well. Listen, I am ready at any stage to come back and play for my country — or England if they ask as well.”
Hayden: “Just quickly, what do you think of Graeme Swann as a bloke?”
Pietersen (Swann): “I have never met anyone called Graeme Swann, at all. I deny that happened.”
Waugh: “He wasn’t one of your favourite teammates? Who was? Who did you enjoy playing with in England?”
Pietersen (Swann): “Kevin Pietersen enjoyed playing with Kevin Pietersen. He was an awesome team guy and a great golfer.”
