Chappell defies India, rescues Aussies with 204 (1981)

Responding to India's shaky 201, Australia got into early trouble thanks to the swing bowling of Kapil Dev's 5-97 and Ghavri's 5-107.

Australian captain Greg Chappell (204 in 296 balls) batted superbly to get them to 406.

India were bowled out for 201 again to lose by an innings and 4 runs.

SCG 1st Test 2nd Jan 1981.
