Test Great, ICC Match Refree David Boon To Join Cricket Australia Board

ICC Match Referee: Former Test batter David Boon has been appointed to the Cricket Australia (CA) Board. He fills the vacancy left by Paul Green, who stepped down after six years as Cricket Tasmania’s representative.

Boon, who is a current ICC Match Referee, will finish up with the ICC following the ongoing Champions Trophy in Pakistan and Dubai to join the CA Board on March 28.

One of Australia’s greatest batters, Boon played 107 Tests scoring 7,422 runs at 43.65 including 21 centuries (the same number of Test hundreds as another Australian great – Neil Harvey), and 99 catches. He was Australia’s fifth highest run scorer in history and fifth most capped Australian player. His tally of 107 Test matches between 1984/85 and 1995/96 made him only the second Australian after Allan Border to play 100 Tests. Read More...
