Dean Jones’ namesake son, Koby Dean Hamilton-Jones, may not have been at the late cricketer’s funeral, but he’s certainly inherited the legendary batsman’s ability on the pitch.

Though the 14-yearold does admit “there’s a bit to go” in the batting department before he can emulate Dean’s incredible cricketing feats. This includes notching up 3631 runs in 52 Tests between 1984 and 1992.
