Dean Mervyn Jones AM (24 March 1961 – 24 September 2020) was an Australian cricket player, coach and commentator who played Tests and One Day Internationals (ODIs) for Australia. He had an excellent record in Test cricket and is best remembered for his batting and fielding in the ODI format. Through the late 1980s and early 1990s, he was regarded among the best ODI batsmen in the world, a view which has been validated in the retrospective ICC Player Rankings. His batting was characterised by his nimble footwork against both pace and spin, quick running between wickets and willingness to take risks. In 2019, Jones was inducted into the Australian Cricket Hall of Fame.He died of cardiac arrest on 24 September 2020 at age 59.
