Season 5, Ep 19: Catalyst. Author. Agitator. Commentator. Antagonist. Ian Chappell led Australia during the Test team's most iconic era, that of Lillee and Thompson. He took on Don Bradman and blew up the establishment. He rejects being associated with on-field aggression, and his sense of compassion led him to some unexpected post-career political action. Never afraid to say exactly what's on his mind, Ian sits down with The Final Word to talk about all of the above.
