RCB to have 10-day camp for CLT20

Bangalore Royal Challengers are making serious efforts to win Champions League T20 with a 10-day rigorous camp at the place where Argentina soccer World Cup squad under Diego Maradona had trained two months back.
South African star all-rounder Kallis and dashing New Zealand batsman Taylor have been retained by RCB after paying USD 200,000 to their home sides Warriors of South Africa and Central Stags of New Zealand and their coach Ray Jennings said the players will have a 10-day camp at the Pretoria University High Performance Centre.

The Argentine soccer side under coach Maradona had a secluded camp at the same center before the June 11 to July 11 World Cup held in South Africa.

RCB, who qualified for the USD six million prize-money tournament after finishing third in the IPL, begin their CLT20 campaign against Guyana at Centurion on September 12 and Jennings said his side has been boosted by the retention of Kallis and Taylor.
“Kallis has a commitment to play for RCB instead of Warriors and so we have paid the amount. The same as Taylor as he will not play for Central Stags. They are class players and it’s great they will play for us. Kallis knows the South African conditions and he will be a great asset for us,” he said.
