Ben Robert Dunk (born 11 March 1987) is an Australian professional cricket player. After playing for the Queensland Bulls, he is now contracted to the Tasmanian Tigers in Australian interstate cricket as a left-handed batsman. He can also play as a wicket-keeper. He has been signed up for season 2014 by Mumbai Indians and will be playing in the Indian Premier League.
He made his Twenty20 International debut for Australia against South Africa on 5 November 2014.
Born in the northern Queensland town of Innisfail, Dunk moved to Brisbane early in his career to broaden his cricketing opportunities. He participated in a specialist cricket program at Mitchelton State High School before winning a Rugby and Cricket scholarship to Brisbane Grammar School. He played for the Northern Suburbs District Cricket Club in Queensland's grade cricket competition and represented Queensland in youth representative teams. He was also in the Australian squad for the 2005 World Youth Cup.
Dunk made his debut for Queensland in December 2009, having been selected in the Twenty20 team. Over six matches in the 2009-10 season, Dunk scored 142 runs off 99 balls, including an innings of 70 not out off 40 balls. He was called up into the Queensland Sheffield Shield team for the first time in October 2010, playing as a specialist batsman (Chris Hartley retained selection as Queensland's wicket-keeper).
In 2012, Dunk moved to the Tasmanian Tigers. On 18 October 2014 he scored an unbeaten 229 against Queensland in the domestic one-day competition. This score of 229 surpassed David Warner's 197 and was the first one-day double century in Australian cricket.
