The Australian cricket community has come together to support Greg Chappell, a revered figure in Australian cricket, who is currently facing financial difficulties. Chappell, known for his remarkable achievements as a batter during the 1970s and 80s, did not have the opportunity for a fundraising testimonial event at the end of his career like many of his contemporaries.

To show their support, a testimonial lunch was organized at the MCG, featuring iconic figures such as Ian and Trevor Chappell, and hosted by Eddie McGuire. Additionally, a GoFundMe page was created to provide financial assistance to the cricketing legend.
