Career
Chapman was a left-arm opening bowler for Queensland who did well in his first two games, but then struggled to progress. He finished this second game with a career-high 3 for 76, taking three early wickets to reduce Victoria to 3 for 18. Despite having a long run in the following two seasons, he only managed to take two more extremely expensive wickets after taking eight for 21.12 in 1949–50.[3]
