NCA trying to get Jonty Rhodes as consultant

BANGALORE, MAY 4. Efforts are on to rope in Jonty Rhodes as a consultant with the National Cricket Academy (NCA) during its current training programme. Rahul Dravid launched the NCA's annual four-month training session on May 2.

The NCA Director Brijesh Patel admitted that talks were on with the South African who is widely regarded as the pioneer in the realm of fielding excellence.

"Yes we are talking to Jonty Rhodes. He is willing but then we are working on the financial terms and if he agrees on that, then he should most probably be here at the academy in June," said Brijesh Patel.
