Tasmanian David Boon scored more than 13,000 international runs during his decorated career in the 1980s and 1990s, securing his place in Australian Cricket's Hall of Fame
Thanks Mr.Boon, I had great memories watching you play. Growing up in India watching matches particularly those played in Australia with lush green fields,white cricket ball and Colorful clothing created life long memories. Before I became fan of Mr. Gilchrist I was big fan of Mr.Boon(something about him always drew me to him, being even keel never too high and never too low looks like a all around great person) and what he had to deal with in terms of opening for Australian with new ball against some of the best fast bowling from great West Indies pace bowlers.

@@ADayInTheLifeOfJames true. Not sure of the exact scientific figures in regard sto the ratio of the effects of alcohol at altitude, but 2.6 cans at sea level has to be at least equivalent to 4 cans an hour in the air
He really had an outstanding record for an opening batsmen against great fast bowling attacks to go in top 3 and average 44, 21,100s and 7500 runs really really great career.
Growing up this man was my favourite player! Watching him bat was just unreal 👍🏽💯😊

australian icon, absolute embodiment of what it means to be a good Australia. courageous, talented and hardworking.
Been fortunate to watch the live 3am and 5am telecast of legend matches..boon ,border, mc dermott, lawson, waugh bros, Marsh and many many more
His Square cut was legendary..Very few can play as well as he did
A true legend, and my childhood hero. I was fortunate to meet him twice, and just as fortunate to watch him play all those years ago.
The Keg On Legs well Deserved mate loved watching you play ty for the great memories
52 cans of beer from Sydney to Heathrow. What a legend.
That's only 2.6 cans an hour over a 20 hour flight. Totally manageable record to break!

@@ADayInTheLifeOfJames hahaha, me too mate. My liver is retired besides
One of my favourite and iconic opening batsmen- David Boon, the legend! What an honour this is! :-D
Congrats David! You really deserve it. I remember watching you in India. I was always excited when you betted. I loved your style.
If one was to ever ask who would be the most loving Tasmanian ever 🙏❤️🙌🦘🏏❤️🏏🦘❤️🦘
Well deserved Boonie, great speech
Very well deserved Mr Boon. A top player, and i understand a team player, cheers.
Boony, dead set legend, ton on retirement, caught Warnys hat trick ball, and made Silly Mid On his own
I haven’t watched Boon play much - but I’m a fan after this speech!
Your bad luck
David boon a spectacular player .. it is always entertaining to watch his innings..
Great speech from the great man!
He really had an outstanding record for an opening batsmen against great fast bowling attacks to go in top 3 and average 44, 21,100s and 7500 runs really really great career.
Bring Back Boonie!
The Man, the myth, the legend
You define 'legend' Boony. Well played. Well deserved.
Surprised and happy at the same time to hear boon mentioning about great Bob Simpson
Great character. Loved to see him play.
I Love You David Boon
You are my Memorable Cricketer
SUPERB CRICKETER of Australia
From INDIA
they were playing perfect cricket shots n game. u can't see like classical players n batting style n shots
Boon baja bajaththy Australia ka philler hai he is great 💐💐 congratulations
Those straight drive and square cuts were just made for Boon by Boon and of Boon!
David Boon , the 5 ft 2 Tasmanian with the flared pants was the perfect choice
Deadly player.. Really a great legend ..
I heard Boon would be friends with anyone who'd have a beer with him! Now how could you not like a bloke like that!
This guy is one of my favourite old time players!
Great speech. From Leeds.
The Boon bat
Think he should have opened his speech with "What an honour, I'd like to thank my sponsors Qantas and VB". Would have had the place in stitches.
He still is my fav batsman. Even from an indian"s perspective. Cricket wise
Thanks boonie
A hard earned thirst needs a big cold beer, and the best cold beer is VB!!!
My favorite batsman of 90s
BEAUTIFUL
A legend batsman and drinker .
No dought lots of memories.
Wonderful
Great Player.
what a cricketer ! what a character!!..remmeber the epic reply to desmond haynes- you see anything in my eyes ? query))))
He looks younger here than his playing days. IDK why.
I got a shirt with him holding his bat up for a 100 my Nan got it printed onto the shirt. Loved it
He's constantly trying to button his coat 🤣
Hi. Hello. Love cricket
They should have had AB introducing him as"the keg on legs"

Pure aussie accent
Boon a nightmare for bowler. Looks fat but runs very fast for run👍
