Editing Ian Chappell (section)

===Return to Tests===
Convinced to return to official cricket when WSC ended, Chappell resumed as captain of SA in 1979–80, a decision he later regretted.<ref>Mallett (2005), p 179.</ref> It was a season too far for the increasingly irascible Chappell. Reported by an umpire for swearing in a match against Tasmania, he received a three-week suspension. In his first match after the ban, he was again reported for his conduct in a game against the touring English team. Given a suspended ban by the ACB, he was then selected for Australia's last three Tests of the season.<ref>[http://content-aus.cricinfo.com/wisdenalmanack/content/story/153581.html ''Wisden, 1981 edition'': 2nd Test Australia v England, match report.] {{Webarchive|url=https://archive.today/20120708225348/http://content-aus.cricinfo.com/wisdenalmanack/content/story/153581.html |date=8 July 2012 }} Retrieved 18 August 2007.</ref> His Test career finished with scores of 75 and 26 not out at the [[Melbourne Cricket Ground|MCG]] against England in February 1980. In his final first-class match, SA needed to beat Victoria to win the Sheffield Shield. Although Chappell scored 112, SA lost the match and the shield. Ironically, the umpires voted him the competition's player of the season for a second time.<ref>Mallett (2005), p 185.</ref>
