- Ian Chappell has shared his version of events which have led to Britain's Daily Mail reporting he nearly came to blows with Sir Ian Botham, and refuted them strongly.

Ian Botham is certainly not a racist, the reason he left Somerset was the treatment Viv and Joel Garner received and how badly Somerset treated them.
Indeed, and Sir Viv Richards has been one of his best friends for well over 40 years.
@@Wally-H exactly. If someone has one famous black friend, how could they possibly be racist? Some of my best friends are black...
@@kiriakoz "If someone has one famous black friend, how could they possibly be racist?" erm depends as if you ask white women this they will go out with a black man because of his dark skin as thats what they are attracted to but they could be racist towards asians or arabs or indians.

Indians are Asians, sonny.
As Aussies we might say Whinging Pomie, but to say something derogative about any other race such as Indigenous, Chinese etc, would cause an outcry . The truth is, although we don't like to admit it, we respect the English. They don't run to the Police saying " he called me a bad name ". I had an Uncle who fought at Gallipoli and breifly knew Private John Simpson (Man with a Donkey). He said he was the bravest man he'd ever known. Getting back to the Cricket and whinging - Ricky Ponting, without question the biggest Whinger ever.
I respect the Aussies too. Us Brits love you in reality.
How can you slag someone off, When you have never met them. I Have met Ian a few times, And he is a top bloke. Check out his Batting & Bowling ave. He used to clear the beer tent when he come out to bat. Not many could do that.
Its the British government who decides the awards such as knighthoods, MBEs etc not the Queen. You should ask your own government why the Aussie teams aren't being honoured not the Queen.
We got king Wally !!!
1975 Headingley. he was given out plum LBW after a big partnership with Rick McCosker, Walking up the pavilion steps into the dressing room and slammed the door shut ....What an ARROGANT TOSSER....Got no time for the man
So much crap written here from people of both countries. Come on people.
Actually most 'English' convicts and 'Irish' convicts (by far the largest groups) were pardoned or gained a 'ticket of leave' a few years after being transported. This was due for example to the lacklustre nature of the court records provided to colonial authorities b) decisions taken by local colonial authorities to reward good work and behaviour. Most of those transported were convicted of typical period 'crimes' against 'property', by far the most severe and largest body of laws in England,
Chappell family under arm bowlers as i recall, tells you all you need to know.
Beefy is the better in a fight.
But to be balanced.
Chappell definitely has the biggest ego and handbag.
Sir Ian Botham was justly awarded his knighthood for his charitable works, not for his illustrious cricketing career.
He couldve been awarded for both. Absolute legend on and off the pitch. And as botham said in 1 of his books, theres nothing worse than a mouthy gobshite, especially when hes a mouthy gobshite aussie! Ha ha ha ha. Priceless from beefy.
Botham would not be sober enough to fight anyone.
@hubbybell i totally agree to u. sobers did not even had the luxury of thigh guards and chest guards and in those days every pitch in west indies, england and australia was a killer. bowlers had full liberty to bowl bouncers and beamers. and in some grounds pitches were yet kept open while rain. even the pads and gloves were not that good and they were stuffed by horse' hair which never provided such safety as these days. sean of the cricket ball was very thick and raised
This is funny. I wish there was a video....
Story I always heard was that when Ian botham was about 19 he came to Melbourne to play club cricket & ended up playing a game against Ian Chappell in melbourne.
There were drinks at the cricketers arms afterward & Ian Chappell apparently got botham so riled up that botham smashed a pint glass & had to be restrained from stabbing Ian, hence the reason Chappell has held such a firm grudge since the incident.
Back when cricketers were piss heads. All pretty boys now
I seriously doubt Botham would use a broken glass.
Botham had a very bad reputation as far as his violent tendencies when he was drunk .
As an Aussie growing up watching Botham ,we adored him he was more of an Aussie than a whinging pom ,BOTH LEGENDS IN MY MIND
Well done, Sheila, have a biscuit. 🙄
One of them is a legend. The other is famous for an underarm delivery.
@@brendanbrown3100 Ian Chappell wouldn't last 10 seconds in a fight against Botham. Also, Botham's cricket achievements far exceeded Chappell's.
@@brendanbrown3100seems you know little about cricket. Greg Chappell ordered the underarm with his brother Trevor bowling.
Ian was nowhere in sight
@@TR-go4oz Sure mate.
I like both guys. I'm not sure why these two don't get along, but it obviously involves ego and pride.
You could build a chip factory with what’s on the shoulders of these two!
This is like asking Sir Donald if he ever threw a punch at Larwood.
Not really . bradman was petrified by larwood , obviously Chapel was never intimidated by both am
@@iang8169 There was this publicised incident in which Beefy and Chappelli got into an argument in a bar and Chappell had to run for his life with Botham at his heels in a mad rage.
Well it had to be for his cricket,agree, I do not think they give the Knighthood for having a 'mullet' in the 80s, they should though! His back troubled him after 87. Not that he could not play well during that time, he did. They changed Knighthoods in Australia in the mid 1970s,they shifted from 'Imperial' honours to the 'Australian system. So an Order of Australia (OA) once would have been a Knighthood recommended by the Australian government to St.James.
both were talented--settle it on the pitch or a boxing ring-this should fire the aussie team a bit for the next encounter...cricket hasnt been the same ,since they retired
I remember watching TV with Chappell hosting some show...
It went to an ad and then I heard from the TV - Jesus Fking Christ what the f_ck is going on!
It was Chappell who was clearly abusive to the staff in the TV studio & the sound man had had enough of him.
There was a big media apology over it. I never liked his narcissistic personality.
You actually mean 'English' convicts, predominantly from major urban English cities in the late 18th and 19th C! There were actually no 'Australian' convicts as the term 'Australian' was really only used in a 'local' sense from the 1840s and 50s to denote issues like self government and the desire of the majority of Anglo elites to cease the use of convict labour. Convicts were denoted by their origin, in this case, either 'English convict', 'Irish convict', or the catch all 'British' convict.
My great great granddaddy on my father's side was a 'convict' and was sent out here to Perth as a 14 year old. His crime? ...stole a book from a library. Taken away from his parents and banished to the other side of the world.
@@IsaacAsimov1992 Best way to deal with thieves, I bet he never stole books again.
You'd think the two of them would grow up.
@MultiBlogger Flintoff is English And ian Botham took 383 wickets and had a batting avaerage of around 35. He is the greatest all rounder.
When? Probably for England.
@gonzo3526 Chappell said there was no fight,so there was no bullying
im sure Rodney (iron gloves) Marsh would be able to tell you who was the good bloke outta these 2,,,RIP Rod
The "honours" system is totally corrupt, and totally pointless. Australians should be relieved to be "overlooked".
Botham would have folded a little coward like chappel in two
Botham would of battered him, he had a knack of battering Aussies, on and off the pitch
I would imagine that his charity work must have played a part in this title. At least he has contributed something back to the world of some benefit. I must say though, the Knighthood has been progessively more and more meaningless. The most common form of knighthood is recommended by the government of the day. Between 1979-1987 he was one of the greatest all round cricketers ever. His decline was noticeable after 87. I think he played 5 more years without getting another 5 for, or hundred.
Absolutely, his walk from John O'Groats to Lands End was epic and raised millions for charity. That is why he got his knighthood. Chappell knows this but he loves sticking the knife in because he is a bitter old fool.
Sir Ian Botham to you Chappell
hahahaaaaa the Queen hates Australia as much as the rest of us
@jonwhittall yeah kallis is top dog but botham is still one of the best of all time, he took vital wickets and scored important runs
Yep. The last part of Botham's career was cruelled by injuries and this affected his batting and bowling averages. At his peak he was for sure the best cricketer in the world.
I like both of these guys but my fav is Tony Greg.
Too right he hasn't he'd crap himself if Beefy decided to give him a slap.
If there was a Harry Hill "FIGHT" type scenario to find out......, my dough would be on Beefy.
“This story grew in the telling” JRR Tolkien
Beefy would knock the coward into next week, no problems!..🙄
they were not like the kookkaburra lollies these days and were able to do make the batsman dance. and in that era when ray lindwall, alan davidson, fred trueman, frank tyson, chris old, fazal mehmood were blazing fire sobers came out as a legend. he he would be a LEGEND till there is this world and cricket game is played
@jonwhittall well stats dont tell us all but if you think so then take a look at tyhe stats kallis has a highest score of around 200 and sobers 365 there batting averages are actually pretty similar and the same goes for there bowwling. Also in this sobers never got to play on flat dead pitches with one bouncer an over against teams like bangladesh, I would like to see kallis bat on a lively track against fast bowling with no helmet.
There should be a TV series called "Bury the Hatchet". Late night, with a proper psychologist- type hosting the bloody thing, with two people who've had some kind of blood grudge against each other since the dawn of time talking it over until they - you know - 'bury the hatchet'.
If a series like that was made, the pilot would have to involve Ian Botham and Ian Chappell. It would be a happy thing for everyone.
And shit guys, you babies, it's been 300 years, possibly more: get over yourselves!
It's literally happening 😂😂😂
I agree, that would be a great idea. Both people have got to want to do it though.
Chappell is all mouth. The Beef would have slotted him pwopa.
@MultiBlogger = Best all rounder of all time!
Shame these two can't get along but even speaking as a 'Pom', Ian Chappell is a far better cricket pundit than Botham. Of the two I know who I'd rather listen to.
And I know who I would have in my team @nd it ain’t chappel
Beefy would murder him in cricket or otherwise
Bovver Botham, the knight who enjoys a pint, (or two)
@jonwhittall and u mate sobers was from a poor family and he learnt the playing from a bat of a wood taken from a palisade and ball made from coaltar and than covered from rubber. when he went to play his first match of first class level at the age of 16 he did not even has full dress. he was wearing knickers and a shirt which was turned cream from white. Sir Everton Weekes gave him full uniform coz that time he was a test player and had 2 pairs of dress. and he gave sobers his first bat
These two are both real men,but I tell you one thing beefy would kick the shit out of chappell and most as he is a real tough guy not just a talker like these radio aussies seem to be!
beefy is twice his size!
i am 53 and would love a chance at Beefy ....lol
I am English and Botham was my childhood hero but sadly the greatest all rounder is Jacque Kallis by a mile. His record is better than Sobers. Average of 55 and 300 wickets. He is a legend with no recognition.
UA-cam saved your arse.
Try taking their bowling average from their batting average....and look at their opponents ...you bell wipe
Rubbish. Kallis and Sobers have very similar statistics. The difference is, that you have seen Kallis play, but not Sobers. Trust me, if you had seen Sobers play, you would rate him much more highly. Kallis and Sobers are clearly the best all rounders of all time, by a long way.
sobers was in a different league to kallis
This is just stupid! Stop getting your stats from Cricinfo, it does not reflect reality, when Sobers played, there was no Sri Lanka, Zimbabwe, Bangladesh, they were uncovered pitches, Sobers bowled both pace and spin...
Don't fuck wiv beefy 😂😂👊👊👊
Don't believe Chappell is a SIR?
Couldn't get a sword on his no neck anyway.
Come on dude, Chappell is 67. Violence against senior citizens isn't right :)
Slightly contradicts the fact that Ian Botham was best mates with Viv Richards...
And still is.
Chappel was a serious sledger. Sledging Botham was a serious mistake. Botham was a gentlemen who would do anything for his country. He once walked out of a function when the Aussies were making anti monarchy remarks.
Correct. But despite being a small percentage overall, those that speak in an 'upper class' accent, even a fake one like Blair, reflecting their own economic/academic background, dominate the media, law, politics, officer corps, finance and the bureacracy. Barry Humphries is over playing his satire, but he is accurately reflecting a particular type of 1950s surban middle class Melbourne from his youth. His Sir Les Patterson is very close to a former politician from Q/land!
Chappel was a notorious sledger but he sledged the wrong fella in Botham.
Let both the legends bury their differences and spend their rest of their life loving instead of grudging against one another.Jesus said ,forgive one another,if you don't neither your father will forgive you.
Ian Botham got his knighthood for his charity work, not for his cricket I thought??
If Ian did confront Chappel, there must have been a reason. The beer glass thing seems very far fetched though.
He got fed up of Chappel mouthing off how good the Aussies were and how crap England were. Botham didn't go to stab him . He actually hit him and decked him one
@@davidalexander2607 were you there ?
@@user-qx9fy8gu1w prob the way it went..Botham was hard chappell was a girl
@@user-qx9fy8gu1wit got covered up very quickly. I bet you didn't know either that the actress Margot Kidder once attacked Burt Lancaster ..scratching his face and pulling his hair . Again quickly covered up .
A part used like that is two words...
Yes he was selfish wasn't he: taking 350+ wickets, over 100 catches and 5000 runs for his country...selfish git!
Whereas Chappell certainly wasn't seen as one of the biggest arseholes ever to play the game was he?!...even Steve Waugh can't stand him!!!
I'll agree that Botham had a big ego, but why wouldn't he!?
Look at Chappell's captaincy and batting records v Bothams. No contest.
@@zenvagabond i will keep it simple, if there was a choice to have botham or chapell in your team at their peak 99 out of 100 people wud pick botham. Simple as....
@@colingeddes2172 Except they wouldn't.
@@zenvagabond why?
@@colingeddes2172 Chappell had the best test captaincy figures of the 70s, was a superior batsman and had tactical nous whereas Botham did not. Botham was also hugely inconsistent.
Let's be fair to "mogadon man" at least one aussie showed some fight in the second test. And where were the australian fans on the final day?
❤❤
Chappell Master of the under arm AH
What about not knowing your alphabet...does that count?!
= annoyed him.
Sobers was a great player but the game has moved on. Kallis is complete. Sobers was a great batsman but his bowling or fielding records cannot stand up to Kallis's statistics. Don't let your passion make your decisions. The statistics say it all.
God save your gracious queen xxxxxx
@TheJohneboy
English derives from Old English, a West Germanic variety, although its current vocabulary includes words from many languages. Although many of the words in the English lexicon come from Romace languages, most of the common words used in English are of German origin.
You also speak some french from when the Normans owned you.
Who's language?
LOL
so don't make it about English vs. Australian
It's you vs. yourself old chap :P
Ludicrous claim, of course he is for cricket (look in wisden) and especially for English cricket...as he is English. Why do you think he is SIR Ian Botham
The whole episode is like a scene from a 12th Man sketch.
I can imagine Richie separating them...
RB:"I TOLD you Chappelli to let this beefy bulls**t go. What the F**K are you doing"
IC: "Well, uh, its,uh, my,uh town Rich. I uh, cant let,uh,this sli....."
RB: "Tell your story walking Ian...NOT interested"
Botham would've kicked chappell's backside into the next state. Ian chappell is all mouth.
Why doesn’t the reporter interview botham,? Or is he quite happy with a one sided conversation, the chappel brothers have nothing to be proud of many people have still not forgot the under arm against New Zealand
All a bit silly really
Sir Donald Bradman
Chappell a complete burk
Got your goat = annoyed you
Got up your goat = sodomized your goat
This is contrived like the WWE....
"played a part"...ok, so you accept then that he sill got recognised for his cricket?! Of course he did!!!! And whatever his decline to have a career like his he is a legend!
I tend to agree with you about the menaingless knighthood's though...i got mine for next to nothing!
I am sure that if he wanted to, Both would take Chappels head off.
I'm just reading Botham,s autobiography at the moment and he reckons he gave Chappell a dig and sent him flying over a table for bad mouthing the English. Chappell walked to the exit door and started mouthing off again so Botham reckons he chased him down the road but didn't catch him! Don't know if it's true or not but I'd like to hear the truth from someone who was there.
@Patrick Names I have no proof either way but I find it highly believable.
I was there in that bar in Melbourne. Chappell shit himself. Fact
Was Viv a Pakistani Muslim?
Struuuth !!! Come on lads sort it art.😢
Yes, Because when India used to bat back in the day, They would be all out before i had my 2nd pint, lol !!!!!!
i always respect ian chappell words when he is in com. box, and to rate the players to their standards...He is MR" KNOWLEDGE " of cricket..i never misd any of his interviews in the recent past. CHAPPELL IS THE BEST...
Please the 2 lans your both heroes of mine go to a bar have a drink and make up for gods sake because life is too short ok.
botham would kick dis guy's ars...
lol.
Nanny goats can be quite attractive. Bit of lipstick, rouge and some eye shadow. They're great kissers.
@doubleupd1 lol absolutely! :D
I hope Botham kicks Chappell ass
Silly old buggers.
yeah. you have a good point ! the englishers get mbe's or what-ever,you Australians should at least be pardoned !!! thats if you can ever win the urn back again....
Story I heard many years ago was that Botham was over in Australia as a youngster doing some training- after a disagreement, he knocked Chappell out. Certainly never heard of any broken glass being involved.
On a cricketing note- loved Both as a cricketer, but get the impression he's a bit of a dick as a person.
#TeamBeefy
Beefy would have chinned him. to big to strong
Ian Chappell is such a chop! Aussie arrogance at its best!
@footy7321
Australian economy... Haha.
Weird that your name is "footy" too... Wonder where that name originates.
I bet Ian Chappell shit himself. I doubt he could knock the skin off a rice pudding.
Makes me laugh all the aussies love giving it over the last 15 years but when England actually out play and batter australia they cant take it. SWANN SWANN WILL TEAR YOU APART, AGAINNNNN!!!! The aussies crying bring back warne lol. Thats like us asking to brink back botham. Talk about desperate.
Ian, can’t you be a man and just leave what ever happened in the carpark in the carpark?
@hubbybell
Mizofan ,are you serious?? Ian Chappell was light years ahead of Ian Botham as a batsman, please dont make absurd comments about a game you obviously know little about.
