David Boon appointed interim Cricket Australia chair

Cricket Australia named David Boon interim chair on Wednesday. The appointment comes as the board manages day-to-day governance ahead of Australia's title defence at the 2027 ODI World Cup.

Boon replaces the previous chair and will oversee operations while a permanent successor is identified. No timetable for a permanent appointment has been released.

The former Test batsman has served in several board roles and is expected to maintain continuity during the transition period.
