Gregg Chappell Admits Facing Financial Crisis, Friends Launch Fundraising Platform
Melbourne Cricket Ground: Former Australian cricketer Greg Chappell has revealed that he is facing a financial crisis and admitted "not living a life of luxury" as his friends pushes for an online fundraising platform to raise his needs.
The Australian skipper who also had a stint as the head coach of the Indian men's team from 2005-2007 scored 24 centuries across 87 Tests during the 1970s and 80s and led Australia 48 times.
“I certainly don’t want it to sound like we’re in desperate straits, because we’re not — but we’re not living in luxury either. I think most people assume that, because we played cricket, that we are all living in the lap of luxury. While I’m certainly not crying poor, we’re not reaping in the benefits that today’s players are,” Chappell told News Corp.
