Opinion was divided last month when the International Cricket Council discussed the reverse sweep, which has become increasingly common. Now MCC, guardians of the game's laws, will look at an issue made wider by Pietersen's full blown switches to southpaw.
"We were going to talk about reverse sweeping but now we're talking about something which I think is slightly different; changing the stance rather than the grip," said MCC's head of cricket, John Stephenson.
"It's an interesting one and I'm sure my team of experts will have some quite strong views on it.
"We had planned to discuss reverse sweeping at our next official law sub-committee meeting. But we have a meeting today anyway and as this [Pietersen's left-handed hitting] has come up, we will talk about it now."
But Stephenson insists no decisions or recommendations will be made today.
"If we feel that something in the law has to change we will have a separate laws-drafting group that will work on it," said the former Essex and Hampshire allrounder. "But that's quite a big decision to make. And any change of law has to go through the members [of MCC], which means next May even if we do anything about it.
"But I really think that a full analysis of how this changes the laws of the game needs to be undertaken first before anything else is decided.
"My purely personal view is to have the talent to do what Kevin Pietersen did is pretty special. What we have to look at is whether it's unfair to the bowler. That's the only thing we need to look at, and everything will flow from that."
Miller, England's chairman of selectors, is in no doubt about the fairness of Pietersen's switch hit. "It's a magnificent-skill," he said. "Because of the risk that goes with it I'd say it's acceptable."
Former England paceman Allott believes bowlers should be able to adapt.
He said: "I think it's good for the game, and good luck to the batsman if he thinks he can pull it off. If a bowler can't adjust in the last pace or pace and half of his run-up then he should not be bowling."
Kiwi batsman Flynn revealed that even the tourists are thinking along similar lines. "All our guys are working on it," said the left-hander.
"The way cricket is going, improvisation is going to be key and, if you're capable of doing it, it's going to make it hard for the opposition to set fields to you and bowl to you."
