JONTY RHODES
There is some good for fans of Jonty Rhodes, Who changed the way cricket was perceived, played a big role in marking the game livelier and more interesting. The cricketer is in town for two days to promote South Africa Tourism. After retiring from international cricket, this is Jonty’s first visit to India.
Jonty feels this time around too he has come with a similar mission, thought’s off the field. “When I played cricket, I was representing my country and as brand ambassador of South African tourism I am doing the same, Says Jonty.
“Sports gave me an opportunity to mix with people of different race, creed and cultural backgrounds and sports tourism will further broaden the scope for people off different countries to know what south Africa has to offer. Apart from making use of the sporting facilities this would give people an opportunity to know about the culture, food and beautiful locales of our country,” he does.
Jonty is all praises for the T-20 format and reveals that he will be a part of IPL in the coming years. “ The format has made cricket more exciting and is not detrimental as some purists feel. It has brought ladies and families to the cricket ground. This being of short duration manages to sustain people’s interest, who finds a 50 over match boring. There is an untapped market for this kind of cricket,” he avers.
