Melbourne: Former Australian captain Ian Chappell yesterday revealed he is battling skin cancer but expects to be fit enough to commentate when the Ashes comes calling next month.
Chappell (known as Chappelli or Chaps to friends), who played 75 Tests for Australia between 1964 and 1980, has completed five weeks of intense radiation therapy after he had skin cancers removed from his shoulder, neck and underarm.
