The name of former South African cricketer Jonty Rhodes was almost decided. As part of the coaching staff of the Indian cricket team. However, the BCCI reportedly refused his appointment and preferred not to appoint foreign coaches. Recently, he humorously addressed the rejection by introducing himself in Hindi, highlighting his connection to India.

“Yeah! Can you believe it? I mean, they didn’t want an international coach, and I’m very local. I mean, my name’s Jonty Rhodes! (I’m Jonty Rhodes) Come on. I’m in Goa Maybe because I live in Goa. Maybe I need to live in the metro (city),” Rhodes said during a podcast on the Alina Disects YouTube channel.
