The Chappell Chronicles

Greg Chappell was cricket’s incomparable artist, a batsman of infinite skill, charm, polish and focus. Hailing from Australian cricket’s most iconic cricket family – three captained and four played for Australia – he was the outstanding batsman of his era, the finest since Don Bradman. He was captain in 48 of his 87 Test matches. He also played in 10 Supertests in the era of Kerry Packer and World Series Cricket. He now is a full-time columnist. Author, commentator, master storyteller and Greg’s friend Ken Piesse is Australia’s most published sportswriter and author, having written, edited or published 91 books. Ken has an unequalled energy, expertise and verve for producing quality sports books. He has won an array of multi-media awards for his compelling writing, commentary and TV interviews and presentations. Almost every Australian who love sports books will have at least one of Ken’s books on their bookshelves. Ken’s books are anecdote-laden and entertaining, making him a first-choice sports presenter for Carnival cruise lines among many outlets.
