Prabhakar to help Delhi bowlers

September 22, 2007 19:55 IST

Former all-rounder Manoj Prabhakar was on Saturday roped in as a senior bowling consultant for the Delhi team.

The Senior Advisory Committee of the Delhi and District Cricket Association, which met in New Delhi, decided to engage the former Test player.

The committee also decided to appoint Anuradha Dutt as coordinator-cum-selector for both the senior and junior women selection committees for this season, DDCA vice president CK Khanna said in a statement.

Sunita Sharma is the coach of the women's team.

Prabhakar, who played 39 Tests and 130 ODIs, was banned for five years from international cricket for his alleged involvement in the match-fixing controversy in 2000, in which he also tried to implicate others.
