This is a superb montage of a great Chappell innings; he was so elegant when on song. Interestingly, it is as memorable for Tony Greig at his peak, as for Chappell. Over the last 40 years in the course of their professional endeavours, the two gentlemen have not been able to escape each other. Thank you very much. I wonder if at some point you might please be able to post a vintage D'Oliveira innings. Thank you again. :-)

I was there as a 16yr old. Every time he hit a boundary an Australian supporter shouted "Great shot Greg Chappell... I mean Ian." Good innings.

Fine, nuggety batsman and a superbly courageous one too. I'd also have him up there as one of the best Aussie players of spin (post-War).
IMHO, the second best Australian captain ever and the way he handled the considerable talents of Lillee, Marsh, his own brother Greg, Thomson and Doug Walters was key in Australian dominance for a fair part of the 1970s. A skipper who'd put his job on the line to back any of his men has to be extraordinary.

Maccamace you are wrong. he's the best commentator for the strategic / tactical aspects of the game. He also was the best capt Oz ever had. and don't give me that Lillee n Thommo excuse. He had them together for less than half the games he captained. He averaged over 50 as captain. Early tests he didnt bat good (averaged 10 in late 60's S Afr tour)

Cheers for that, dlamiss. When Chappelli got going, he was very good to watch.

Better captain..but not better batsman...and statistical criteria would agree.

Very fine batsman. Absolutely shit commentator though - takes 10min to point about nothing of any importance.

keddw , same age as you in 1975 , gee I wish I was you in england in that endless summer , listened to it in the small hours of the morning with the tranny tucked under me pillow half dreaming of lords , the oval . etc . the last great years of hard test match cricket before the new age swept it away with wsc , tests after are still great but never idealic like this year , great memories hey.
