I saw Tiger play at he WACA in the 60s. I marvelled that such a man could be Captain. It was my introduction to Indian test teams. Then cam et h greta spinners, Bishen Bedi my favourite. I never forgot Tiger nor the team and the spinners. Chappelli is such great story teller and one of the best cricket commentators going around. RIP Tiger.
Now that's what you call a homage a straight talking Ian for a damn straight Tiger..I'v always loved to hear Ian he is damn fine narrator - the only endearing Chappel...RIP Tiger Pataudi regrettably I was born too late to watch him in person..but each time I hear someone speak about him I find a little more respect for the man..
A touching tribute to an unsung and true genius of the game - Tiger. Tragically underused and cut short, he will never-the-less live long in the minds of those who knew him.
Such lovely eulogy to a great skipper and the Nawab. MAK will always remain our best Indian captain. You step into Cricket Centre at Wankhede and MAK welcoming you with that killer look and the smile, you step out of that lift to the first floor & I mean it, he is the greatest skipper ever!
He was the best to pay a tribute. Since not only being an opponent but a great friend of Ian Chappell' whenever he came to Delhi he always visited him.
I've waited to listen this for a long time.Thanks million for uploading!As for Tiger One day we will regret and missed Ian.Ian is one of his kind.He will create big boot to fill.Very hard to find.We may never will.So, I relish every word of him.
I saw the Delhi match at Feroz Shah Kotla ground with my dad in 1969. I was i think 6 yrs of age then! Ian chappel made a century on the first day. I think India won that match. Not sure how much Patuaudi made. It was not a good scoring match for either side. Spinners totally dominated the innings.
one simple truth. tiger would have been an excellent one man selection panel for india. he loved the game but more important he made the world sit up by pushing the 4 spinners to memorable performances. too bad we had and have a rotten Cricketing Board who never understood his genius. chappell and imran missed out on one quality of Tiger. His genius. probably no matter how close they claim they were to him or how much they adulated him the word genius never came to thier lips.
Ian Chappell is simply the world's best story teller!
Chappelli was and is always incisive, eloquent and ti the point. Humorous too. ❤️❤️

Tiger was a Sussex legend. To play cricket again after the car crash proved both his resolve and greatness.
That is the best i have heard ian chappell.good job captain.
IAN CHAPPELL WAS MARVELOUS PLAYER DURING HIS DAYS AND FANTASTIC COMMENTATOR , VERY STRAIGHT FORWARD.
Gracious man, Ian Chappell. Terrific batsman, and what a leader of men!
What a great speaker! The best commentator too. Ian Chappell always talks well and talks sense.
Tiger indeed was great, it is great loss for indian cricket. He was no doubt an institution within

Wonderful lecture.great orator & story teller.many legends are bidding good bye to us

Superb story telling style. Such grace
ian ian it is another virtue of him. great sportsmen both of them Ian and Tiger.
Laced with wit, humour and insights. Such a treat to the ears.
Wish BCCI can get him into our country to commentate. But then Ian would never come if freedom of speech is curtailed, isn't it?!
I think and feel that this kind of comradeship went missing post the 80s when cricket became very serious and less gentlemanship.
Tremendously cricketer.

I'm an effing Prince Ian!
Was Ian speaking in a graveyard ? Barely any response after hearing abt such great moments
What an orator!
SUPERB
Wow.
Cricket admn like Gavaskar Ravi Shastry are like Politicians
While Tiger, Mohinder & oters others are not
Sounds like cricketers were gentlemen in those days. No mentioning of any sledging..
