34. Greg Chappell on World Series Cricket, Modern Batting & The Future of Test Cricket
About this episode
Greg Chappell discusses the evolution of cricket, the challenges facing Test cricket, and shares personal anecdotes from his career.
One of the all-time greats joins the show. Blewie brings Greg Chappell to the table for a wide-ranging chat on World Series Cricket, the shift in power from boards to players, and why the future of Test cricket is under real pressure. They revisit the 1972 Ashes, his Lord’s hundred, facing the West Indies fast-bowling quartet, and why Andy Roberts was the most complete of them all. We dive into modern batting, the power game, the front leg clearing, the sweet-spot era, and whether technique has been sacrificed for spectacle. Plus classic Rod Marsh stories and a reminder of what elite competitiveness really looks like. One for the diehards, from a man you rarely hear at this length.
