As an Englishman I've never actually been Botham's biggest fan but his ability is unquestioned, he single-handedly won matches and tests and he's done so much for sick kids, hats off to him. Chappell doesn't come across well at all.

You could see Botham would've been willing to drop it had there been a little bit coming back the otherway, but Chappel was sat there like a sad, old man. To not give Botham any credit at all, considering his charity work has meant kids with lukemia now have a 90% survival chance compared to less than 10% when he started, is totally disrespectful!

This was gripping television but sadly I have to admit Chappelli came out of this looking rather sad and childish.

I’m a Aussie but I’m 100% behind Sir Ian

Botham outclassed him again just like on the pitch

The only person who maintains eye contact is Beefy.

What a gentleman Botham is.. he offered an olive branch to Chappell, and all Chappell could do was refuse it.. what a plonker. Both were excellent players.. but as humans.. Botham wins hands down.. the things he has done in his life for the hood far outweigh the silly things he may have one when goaded by a sad Aussie( and I loved the Aussie teams of the 70’s!!)

Chappelli also entered a feud with the very intelligent and articulate New Zealand batsman Glenn Turner. Chappelli could give but couldn’t take … exactly how Botham described. Ian Chappell set the scene for 50 years of Aussie sledging. The idea of cricket being a gentleman’s game ended with him.

Everybody in the world of Cricket will always love Ian Botham - not even half of Australia love Ian Chappell

Amazing to see how many Aussies side with Both.

Botham shows how much tougher he is.

Why is Chappell sulking about this fued, he started it all. Chappell comes across as sad, bitter, lonely man.

I met beefy in his pomp in 1982 I was 14 he was absolutely brilliant sat with me and my uncle for half hour

Two great old cricketers nearing the end. Botham tried an olive branch showing respect to Chappell the player/captain but Chappell is to bitter to move on. He will take the feud to the grave he looked sad, weak and pathetic. Life is to short for all that and Beefy knows it

Chappell shows exactly what he is and Botham describes him well.

Beefy showed a lot of grace in acknowledging IC as a good player despite the hatred from the other side. Nothing even remotely cowardly about that, btw!!!

Ian Chappell is the epitome of irony when any Australian uses the term ''Whinging Pom''..... I've never seen a grown man clearly enjoy holding a grudge for so long that actually makes him so miserable also.......

Man, that was intense. Best short movie i've ever seen. I literally felt it.😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮

Spent nearly 20 years on the pitch and in changing rooms, (cricket and rugby) with Aussie lads and the one thing I always found is that they will play hard, chat shit, but after the game there's a handshake and a beer. They do sportsmanship better than us. However, Chappell, here, does not represent Aussies well. What a tool! And I don't even like Botham.

Ian chappell looks a very sad and bitter man.

Chappell calling Botham a coward lol. He shit out twice 😂😂

For a 8 year period ian botham was arguably the greatest cricketer on the planet and did so much for charity off the pitch. As for chappell, a very bitter old man, kept insulting botham and accusing botham of being a liar every sentence when he opened his filthy mouth.

Even as an Aussie I respect Botham far more than Chappell.

Fascinating that Botham can easily look at Chappell, but not vice versa.

As a little kid at my first ashes test, me and another little boy waited with our autograph books for Chappell while he finished a TV interview... when he finished he walked straight past the both of us and ignored us... what a Cnut

As an Aussie I’m team Botham all the way.. Botham came in open minded and Chappell looked and sounded pretty bitter and pathetic. Botham was one of the most awesome cricketers I seen, decades ahead of his time and was loved by teammates and opponents and all who watched him for his cricket and sportsmanship. So it seems to be a bit of a Chappell problem.

A feud to rival any other, not only in sport but in just about every walk of life. This one is going to the grave, absolutely no doubt.

Ian Botham is on a different level to that sad old lonely Aussie

There is something quite unhealthy about Chappell's attitude after all this time.

Chappell couldn’t even look at him.

Beefy won this hands down,Ian Botham world respected Sportsman and erm Ian Chapell.

Sad to see, I thought they were both going burst out laughing but if they were serious. Ian Chappell was a terrific batsman, especially the hook and a great Captain. Beefy, a living legend, inspiration and hero. I love the man.

These 2 were put in a commentary box together during the Gabba test of the 98/99 series. Botham acted profressional the half hour they were in there together, Chappell didn't even acknowledge Botham's existance. Its blatantly clear that one, despite their hatred of each other, is prepared to act in a manner that one would expect of a man, and that's Ian Botham.

I ain’t a body language expert but it felt that Ian Botham came to sort out the issue if Chappel was willing too.

Chappell will be remembered for nothing more than an embarrassment. Botham is an absolute legend.

Sad for Chappel that even his teammates and fellow patriots chose Botham over him

Ian Botham is one of the gutsiest players I have ever seen in my life. Chappell was just a sledger.

Botham was known for his charismatic personality and his unwavering determination to win matches. He had engaging feuds with several players, one notable example being his rivalry with Imran Khan. However, Botham's genius made him stand out from the crowd, and his extraordinary abilities were unmatched. Despite his volatile and aggressive demeanor, he was widely admired, both in Australia and England. In addition, Botham's passionate and dramatic commentary endeared him to many fans, even though it may not always have been the most technically accurate. Whenever Botham was involved, nobody wanted to miss out on the action. However, the same cannot be said for Chappell.

Also I’m no body language expert but I’ve watched enough interrogation analysis videos to see that Botham is displaying all the telltale signs of an honest person. The eye contact is a dead giveaway.

Botham was nice and relaxed,chappil like a child

I'm a Brit and am a big fan of Beefy and I have been an avid cricket fan since 1983 so I have known about this quarrel for a long, long time. After watching this I feel so sad for them both. Whatever did happen all those years ago needed to be put to rest and sadly I don't think it ever will be. They are going to take this one to their graves.

This is beautful ❤ love it. I’m on beefy’s side. Thanku chaps for the best 6 mins on KZfaq all year. 🎉

I think the Aussies have more respect for Botham than Chappell.

Iam an Aussie , I'd back botham any day of the week. Chappel is sneak

I'm an Aussie and I'll never forgive Ian Botham. He should have punched that clown there and then. I would have liked that.

You can tell Chappell is a sad lonely old man, Botham clearly wanted to engage? Chappell must’ve needed the dough!

“This little pommy broke more records than you’ll ever think about” ouch 😅😂

Chappell was 33 when he started the fued. Like beefy says he thought he could rile up the 21 year old Pom, and he didn’t like it that Botham gave it back. Just a typical stubborn sad little man, got shown up and can’t live it down.

Beefy has never denied the glassing threat, only diverted with 'Why would I need to' or words to that effect.

Sir Ian Botham = Legend

Both men have amazing attributes - Chappell for his role in establishing WSC and Botham for his life changing Charity work. Two legends but individually they must be hard work to hang around with..

Hahaha like he pair of dustbin lids "he started it". Chappell what a big baby

Ian, one of my biggest heroes just an unbelievable England hero.

It looks like the green-eyed monster is on his last legs & his 45 year-old beef with Beefy is all that’s keeping him going. Botham put him on his arse years ago & looks the better man in this clip too.

Ian will forever remain my hero. He never buckles to bullies. A great Englishman who always stood up

I was into cricket so much back then , never missed a match, the day night series were so exciting. They are both legends ,and they dont have to like each other ,

Most Australians and 100% of non-Australians (including the billion plus of the Indian Subcontinent, etc.) recognize that Botham is in the right, not Chappell.

How bitter Mr Chappell is.❤

Chappell is the perfect example of the Aussie cricketer who loves to dish it out but can't take it. They've got a few in their current side like this now.......

The greatest all rounder of all time , and a sad old man who never got any where near him .

I like Ian Chappell , what a batsman.. as for botham the best allounder/fighter guy of his times..I love them both for the way they played the game.

Its good to see rivalry amongst great players ( which they both were), its good to see one tried to move on while the other one keeps botham in his head for free

Ian Botham would be in an all time World 11..Chapel can clean the loo,s. In this vid Botham is still and always will be a very proud man.

I believe Chappell's account 100%. Maybe Botham was too pissed to remember the glass, but as an Aussie (and a Chappell supporter) I felt the following:- 1. It's a dumb idea to start sledging a pissed bloke who's bigger than you. In any situation. 2. Botham looked to be extending the olive branch at the start of that final interview (probably thinking "life's too short for this shit") and Chappell didn't even look at him. Bad start 3. When asked to say something positive Botham said Ian was a good cricketer and captain (which he was), Chappell was disgraceful in his response (love him or hate him Botham was an amazing all rounder) Chappell indeed looked very bitter and lonely and I felt pretty average (and embarrassed) watching him in that "interview". Just my opinion, And I'm biased towards Australia, but not in this case.

Beefy would destroy him like he did in the original punch up. Chappell is just embarrassed because he got embarrassed by a 21 year old.

Botham: North Melb, I got shunned Chappelli: I told Stevenson to tell you to piss off Botham: so you did do it, ok Chappelli: no I didn’t He’s a walking talking contradiction of himself

Beefy literally "owned and obliterated" Chappelli in that little exchange!😂

Both men were great cricketers and had successful careers, but have enormous egos and absolutely no emotional intelligence - they are basically little boys in men’s bodies. I have slightly more respect for Ian Botham - it was clear that he was prepared to concede a bit of ground and maybe bury the hatchet, but there had to be something in return from Ian Chappell and Chappelli simply could not find it within himself. What a sad, toxic and insecure person Ian Chappell is.

Chappell couldn’t even make eye contact. Botham could. Shows you who the real coward is

Leaves no doubt as to was the better player, man and human being.

I was waiting for the reunion. This appears to be genuine. Chappell couldn’t pay one compliment to Botham. Shame on him.

How on earth did they get them to sit down for this?! Incredible really.

This is just sad on both sides it’s been 30 years ffs life’s to short to carry this level of bitterness around

Either in jail or hospital? Rest assured it would've been the hospital for you Chappell old son.

Ian Botham was an amazing cricketer, great competitor and beat us almost on his own in several tests. I met him once and he was down to earth and friendly. I loved watching the Chappell brothers bat and Ian was a fierce competitor. Who really cares if they don’t get on.

Chappell was scared of Beefy then and he's still a bit scared of him now.

Ian Botham a perfect example of a true gentleman and one hell of a cricketer. Enough said

Met Beefy and he is larger than life , colourful and a genuine force of nature to be in his company , and many Aussies I have heard speak of him in the game , love and respect the guy as much as we do The other bloke always had negativity associated with him and the lines of Lillee , Thompson & Border aren’t that keen on Chappell because he is just a bitter egotistical arsehole

This is hilarious, almost like Heat De-Niro vrs Al-Pacino The Dark Knight Batman vrs Joker interrogation scene

Botham said he was a good cricketer, and Chappel called Botham a coward ...

Beefy = Legend Chappell - Bitter and twisted The 2 don't compare and Chappell couldn't lace Beefy's boots on and off the cricket pitch 🏏

Chappell still acting like a child

Wow all I see from this is how pathetic Ian Chappell is in this interview and clearly how he has carried this on. What a sad act!

How sad . Botham was showing a little bit of an olive branch. Chappell none sadly.

Botham would batter him 😂

Botham is one of England's best ever cricketers. Exciting and controversial, which is always entertaing as well.

😂😂😂 I love this,Chappell should of Dropped it but at least Botham tried to mend the situation. And Iam an Aussie but not the biggest fan of Ian Chappell.

Botham wins this easily, Botham at least gave him credit saying he was a good cricketer, Chappel is sad and bitter

I'm an Aussie, but I have never liked Chappell. Good player and captain, but he has always bugged the shit out of me as a commentator (pretty funny that he had a dig at Beefy's commentary skills) and he comes across here as a sad, bitter old man.

Very sad to see two great players who can’t put all that behind them now life really is too short

Just watched Ian in a couple of his test innings..a magnificent site, he was just awesome. Thanks for your gift to us..a truly great man.

Basically, Chappell lost a minor bust-up with a young Pom & had to make up a story to save face. His body language says a lot too.....

Maybe if Beefy had turned up with a Revitive machine things would have been smoothed over. “Walking today Chappelli”?

Chappell's locked into a position and nothing is ever going to sway him. That reflects poorly on his character. Conversely, it appears Botham would concede some ground if Chappell was willing to do the same. The comment about Botham's commentary was childish and irrelevant to the issue at hand. This isn't bias speaking, I'm Australian. .

England fan here. I love Beefy and Chappell. Very unfortunate that these guys couldn't bury the hatchet after all these years. But I realise both these guys are very strong personalities. I can say positive things about both of you. Would like to see a handshake some day.

I wonder how many millions Chappell has raised for charity with, for example walks of hundreds of miles? Botham is a heroic man, Chappell has a very well developed right arm.

U can feel the hate 😂

That poor poor beer glass. Why does the beer glass always get the blame.😢

Chappelli couldn't even say that Botham was a good player.

Beats me why either of them agreed to do this, unless they were paid huge fees.
