As he tucked his pads under his arm and picked up his bat, the rest of the players were already making their way to the change room at the back of the ivy-covered Members Stand. The Sheffield Shield season was beginning that week in Brisbane. Queensland would play New South Wales. Like a slow thaw following winter, cricket’s arrival heralded the approach of summer. Chappell felt compelled to make some sort of speech on the eve of the season. Despite his prowess with words he wasn’t much for the ‘rah rah’ stuff. He believed bowlers bowled and batsmen batted. If they needed motivation from speeches then there might be something wrong. When he spoke it was direct and honest which is why his mind was being tugged in two directions: what 20170814_3204 Chappells last stand_TXT.indd 1 15/8/17 10:42 am he wanted to say to the team that might set the tone for the year, and what he really thought of their chances.

Pakistan claimed the honours in the dress rehearsal for the final with a memo- rable victory over the world champions in a dramatic day/night encounter at Trent Bridge on Tuesday. The game lived up to its billing right from the onset as Saeed Anwar and Saleem Elahi tore into the Australia attack. Elahi was in particularly impressive form, blast- ing 79 from 91 balls as Pakistan plundered 290 from their 50 overs. But, never wanting to be outdone, the Australians responded in fine style with Adam Gilchrist attacking the Pakistan bowling with equal relish. The wicketkeep- er sensationally raced to his 20th one-day international half-century in just 29 balls on his way to a quick-fire 70. Once Saqlain Mushtaq had ended his 44-ball knock however, skipper Waqar Younis stepped up to take the game by the scruff of the neck. The pace star is bowling as well as he has done in years as his side come to the end of their tour of England and his figures of six for 59 fully deserved the man of the match award and to take his side to victory.
