Australian cricket legend Ian Healy has been announced as the new Deputy Chair of Queensland Cricket and former Bulls paceman Joe Dawes appointed to a senior cricket role.

Queensland Cricket Chair Kirsten Pike, who replaced Chris Simpson in the role at last month’s Annual General Meeting, said the appointment of the Deputy Chair had been ratified at this week’s Board meeting with Healy accepting the nomination.

“As was the case when he was playing for Australia and captaining the Bulls, Queensland Cricket is in the best of hands with Ian stepping up to the role of Deputy Chair of the Board of Directors,” she said.

“His acumen in the cricketing and business world is first rate, and his passion for the game is well known and valued by all who know him.”
