Description
Australia's current cricketers owe a lot to this week's guest on Lessons Learnt with the Greats, the former captain and champion batsman Ian Chappell. Chappelli was as tough as they come, not only as a no-nonsense batsman but off the field when dealing with the Australian Cricket Board. Chappelli, along with his peers in the 1970s, stood up to the likes of Sir Donald Bradman in fighting for better pay and conditions for the players. He was a key figure in World Series Cricket before returning to the Test team where the players were paid more, paving the way for today's cricketers reaping the rewards for their efforts.It's a fascinating listen and Chappelli tells stories that I could listen to for days and days. I hope you all enjoy.Episode notes01:46 - Chappelli starts by talking about his early days and taking on the ACB16:00 - Chappelli talks batting an taking on the short ball35:47 - How Chappelli honed his catching skills41:37 - The mental side of the game47:08 - Chappelli's learnings as a leader56:09 - Chappelli on how he's handled the media1:01:53 - Chappelli's mantra on life1:07:02 - The three people who have inspired ChappelliYouTube linksChappelli's 111no v World Xi, 1971-72 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Iqbuybg_aY Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022.
