Greg now a hot tip for ACA post

The interview also indicated that the BCCI8217;s bid to rope in the former Australian captain as a consultant for the National Cricket Academy NCA may go in vain and Chappell might join the Australian Cricket Academy ACA as its head coach.

According to reports, Chappell is a clear favourite to succeed Tim Nielsen, who leaves the job to take over the Australian team8217;s reins from John Buchanan after the World Cup. Chappell, however, said: 8220;I am not making decisions yet but after a while I will look at the options.8221;

Meanwhile, he asserted that his troubled tenure with the Indian team has not turned him off coaching. 8220;I don8217;t feel cheesed off, not at all,8221; he said.

He also criticised the Indian media for exaggerating his medical check-up. 8220;It was just a minor thing that they obviously made into something bigger. The health is fine, there is no drama other than what the media made of it. I made sure I was in good health to fly back to Australia,8221; Chappell said.
