Former ICC match referee David Boon joins Cricket Australia board, bringing vast experience as player and administrator.
Former batter David Boon will relinquish his current position as an ICC match referee after the ongoing Champions Trophy to join Cricket Australia's (CA) board from March 28.
The 64-year-old Mr. Boon is the chairperson of the Cricket Tasmania board and will represent the body in CA, succeeding incumbent Paul Green.
"I'm absolutely delighted that David will bring his vast experience as a player and cricket administrator to the CA board," CA chair Mike Baird was quoted as saying by 'cricket.com.au'.
"David has continued to gain first-hand insights into international cricket in his role as an ICC match referee and this will be invaluable as we negotiate the game's rapidly changing landscape," he added.
Mr. Boon has been an ICC match referee since 2011. He played 107 Tests and 181 ODIs for Australia and accumulated 13,386 international runs in the two formats. He was a member of the 1987 World Cup-winning team in India.
