(Ian is pictured above during his fine knock of 62 in Australia's 2nd innings of the drawn 3rd Test against England at Headingley, Leeds in August 1975. This Test is best remembered for being abandoned as a draw after the pitch was sabotaged by vandals who were campaigning for the release from prison of a convicted man. No play was possible on the Monday, thus wrecking what could have been a hugely entertaining final days play, with Australia 220-3 chasing an improbable victory target of 445. Not surprisingly, England was the country that Ian played most Tests against (30) with Pakistan (4) the least. In those 4 matches against the Pakistanis Chappell scored 352 runs at a very healthy average of 58.66, including his Test best score of 196 in the 1st Test of the 1972/73 series which was played at Adelaide. Ian's complete record versus the other four countries he played against can be seen on this site.)
