Australian cricket great Dean Jones has died in India aged 59 after suffering a heart attack. Jones was staying in a Mumbai hotel while working for broadcaster Star India as a commentator.
“It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing away of Mr. Dean Mervyn Jones AM,” a Star India statement read. “He died of a sudden cardiac arrest. We express our deep condolences to his family and stand ready to support them in this difficult time.”
Jones, regarded as one of the finest batsmen of his generation, was part of Australia's World Cup-winning team in 1987. He played 52 Tests and 164 one-day internationals in an international career that spanned 10 years from 1984 to 1994.
