Default Australian Cricket Great Dies at 59

I'm no fan of Aussie cricket, and Aussie Cricketers are on the top of my love to hate list (its a long story).

But Dean Jones was different- I loved watching him bat, even when he was flogging my Team. He was a free spirit, entertaining, tough & took the mickey out of everybody, including himself.

He was a great commentator as well, & his interviews on Radio Sport were incredibly funny.

To die at 59 is just not right.
