Electric, determined, revolutionary: The best of Dean Jones

[@GregsKitchen]

RIP Aussie legend

[@worldloverandsupporter6638]

@Dhyanam Mehta oh yes

[@riyasmohamed]

KZbinr huh 😍

[@worldloverandsupporter6638]

@Dhyanam Mehta yes he is the one of the best.

[@worldloverandsupporter6638]

@Dhyanam Mehta but Marco is legand

[@worldloverandsupporter6638]

@Dhyanam Mehta he is the main chef of Australia and it's a pleasure to meet him. His techniques , recipes are awesome. He is absolutely a good maintor also.

[@Arjun-ej7fj]

Averaged 44.61 in ODI that too playing between the mid 80s and mid 90s... when bowlers had a far better command than today.. if he played today.. he would've averaged around 50 or more... certainly one of the greatest ODI Batsmen

[@drsmart0078]

Arjun absolutely the best after Vivian Richards .

[@rahulsrinivas3224]

He also was a good test batsman. He had a a good average of 46 in tests. Remember his 210 in the tied test match in Chennai?

[@Rikka_V1]

I always knew him as a commentator and never even wished to look at his stats considering it'd be poor like basically most commentators, what a shame.

[@AAAAAA-gj2di]

@@Rikka_V1 Mate there are tons of commentators like Michael Slater, Atherton, Nas Hussain etcetera who were great players

[@Rikka_V1]

@@AAAAAA-gj2di Hussain and Atherton were nowear near great players imao, they averaged in the 30s. Slater too wasn't obviously good enough, considering he made his debut around Ricky and Sachin's debut.

[@MoodyKhan87]

He was my cricketing model. I started playing cricket by watching his batting videos. Although he was retired then (1996). Yet i was in love with him once i watched his batting highlights. I got his playing days posters, wore Jones shirt. Tried to run as fast as possible between wickets like him. Ohh God Jones is no more, how can i digest this shocking news. Its unbearable. I love you Deano❤💔. You were and will be my inspiration in cricket/life. You will be missed. Your true fan from 🇵🇰

[@LiquidJaguar10]

One of the finest ODI players revolutionized the game that singles and doubles are an integral part of the game. Classy slip fielder!!! An exciting and funny commentator who wanted to cherish the game with some banter. A wonderful coach too having made Afghanistan a team worth consideration. A player who excelled in all aspects of the games. Deano you and your red book will be missed. RIP.

[@daviddundas4140]

Hard to believe Deano has passed away, remember watching him get 140 at the Gabba, magnificent batting, he could get down the other end in 3.1 sec, he would run 1 1/2 runs while Boony was completing the 1st, Thoughts are with his family.

[@sportsfanatic5719]

The Pioneer of the modern day one day Cricket. The man who brought energy into white ball cricket. A very talented batter and wonderful TV personality. You will be missed Deano 😭😭 Rest In Peace mate!!

[@Andrew-wy7ji]

I saw Dean Jones at the MCG on a day-night match in the 1980s. He ran out a batsman directly square of and perhaps 25 meters from the wicket with a perfect throw. Only a handful of cricketers could pull that off.

[@KARTIKEYMISHRA12]

If you want to see how much India admired and loved Deano, just see this comment section 🙏

[@shobhitchaturvedi4866]

Comment section is full of "totally free Indians" 😂😂

[@JeremyWong194]

RIP Deano, a proud Vic and ambassador / trailblazer for cricket. You will be sorely missed...

[@jamescaldwell7396]

He was an absolute hero to me growing up in the early 90’s. Would listen to score updates and commentary on 702 grandstand when he was playing for Victoria. His running between wickets was ridiculous and he always brought energy to everything he did. RIP to a true Australian legend.🇦🇺😢

[@jamescaldwell7396]

High plains drifter listen to domestic and watch the international.😊

[@consciousbeing1188]

Another of my boyhood heroes is gone... Thanks for the memories DJ... Gone too soon... never forgotten.

[@andrewkelly4195]

It is so refreshing to hear the old school commentators

[@andrewgort8067]

I will never forget going to the MCG for a day night game to watch Dean Jones. The excitement around the ground when he came out to bat was spine tingling.

[@MGAnnAd]

RIP Deano, gone too early !!! what a legend with the bat and electric fielding. Love and Respect from India !!! Thanks for sharing.

[@vkp3864]

Always loved Australia and Australian cricketers.😍😍Love from India.

[@fatpizza482]

Grew up watching this legend. RIP Deano.

[@KartikeyaKKJunior]

As a cricketer he had the brains and the grit. As a commentator, he had the wit. Rare combination. True entertainer of the cricketing world for four decades. Always loved listening to professor Deano. With love, from India.

[@yasasediriweera8281]

Great cricketer we ever seen, we mised one of the legend.. from Sri lanks 🇱🇰 😥 💛💚💙❤️🤝

[@mrhufflepuff6443]

A revolutionary, a controversial and unique character, a comedian and an all around great guy... he is Dean Jones... Rest Easy Deano RIP

[@bazball_0755]

I'm a Indian and I've got so much respect from this man, The man who revolutionized ODI batting that we can take singles and doubles rather smacking sixes, he is an absolute legend of cricket, he will be missed 😔😔 Rip Legend 😭😭

[@drsmart0078]

Franklin Jeno yeah but he was also a man of sixes too .

[@BowieDownunder]

He constantly scored runs that were not even there for other players. So much speed and command at running between wickets. Nothing like him.

[@memesmith9700]

Walked into an Adelaide pub some years ago and randomly spotted him at the bar sipping a pint and chatting. He was my hero as a cricket mad kid, the way he played; that flair and fearlessness, and something else I didn't quite understand at the time. I didn't say hello to him and now wish forever I did. I always reflect on that moment and have regrets. RIP Deano

[@laymansreviewer6916]

Wow..as good as any modern day cricketer. I didnt know he was such a brilliant fielder too. Awesome!

[@devajyotiborah8672]

He was definitely one of the fastest runner between the wickets.He was always in a exuberant mood and would likely to be remembered fondly after having left us forever a little too early.

[@bkasyap7117]

Dean was a rockstar and this video is a perfect tribute to him. The volume levels, audio,video mixing and selection are simply top notch. He will be remembered as a giant of the game.

[@vinodhkrishnan]

Few humans who could bring so much colors and thrill to cricket. One of the foremost is Dean Jones. Miss you on of the modern greats!! ❤

[@zeeshan8918]

Would surely miss him... Will also miss the energy he brought to PSL.... His words were "Giving the boys the taste of winning" Lv from Pakistan 🇵🇰✌️

[@sacredclown4179]

When the bats were the size of toothpicks and a boundary was a real boundary, he played with such temerity and flair, against bowling attacks, that were truly incendiary, Dean jones a true bellwether.

[@drsmart0078]

james rowe He had the flair , tenacity and commitment of a superman. His innings in Madras test will never be forgotten. Truly a legend.

[@sacredclown4179]

@@drsmart0078 Absolutely fun fact Jones on about 150 in that inning said to Border I have to go off, I am going to die, or to that effect Border replied " ok go off send someone out with a bit of ticker" He went on to score a double century! Jones later stated he was on a drip to recover, and it took his body about 2 years to recover!!

[@rahulchoudhury3681]

My friend Deano was not only an asset of Australian Cricket he is a asset of World Cricke. RIP deano. L Respect and Lv from India 🇮🇳. U will be remembered forever.

[@drsmart0078]

james rowe Spot on mate . He lost 8 kilos in that time duration on the crease . Such commitment will never be possible from the present lot except for Smith and Manus . Still , it was a Herculean effort . So fragile is this life . The other day I was listening to his usual zealous commentary.

[@phillipfubar8869]

Deano was the master of the cheeky single. When the going was tough he'd drop the ball near his feet and run. Some of them were downright disrespectful to the fielding side yet his judgment was impeccable and he always made it to the other end.

[@southpawjab4749]

You could make a 10 minute highlight package of his fielding as a sweeper alone. One of the best arms of all time, and greyhound like around the boundary.

[@sunilmallya007]

As an Indian , grew up watching Deano play and boy , he was a treat to the eyes. Great talent.

[@nilaydidolkar]

Used watch him on Star Sports Select DugOut every big tournament that they covered. Even the IPL from the first game. Just can't believe he's no more. What a fun guy he was! RIP Legend.
