Former South Africa star Jonty Rhodes insists “the time is right” for a new franchise tournament to leave a lasting mark on European cricket.
Rhodes has signed up as a co-owner of Rotterdam Dockers, one of six sides in the European T20 Premier League which begins on Wednesday. The first phase of the round robin takes place in The Hague before a second set of fixtures in Malahide, which also hosts the final on September 20.
