Sir Donald Bradman is arguably Australia's greatest ever sportsman, in any sport, having achieved unbelievable feats on the cricket ground at International level and in fact is this country’s only knighted cricketer. Sir Don was born in 1908 and whilst at school used to amuse himself by using a cricket stump to continually hit a golf ball against a water tank, all the time honing a skill that would one day see him as undeniably the greatest batsman of all time. Although Bradman left school at the age of 14 he didn’t commence playing the game of cricket until he was 16 years of age and in 1928 at the age of 20 was selected to play for Australia against our old adversary England and although we lost that Series, Bradman scored a century in his Third Test. It soon became apparent to all good judges that Bradman was an extremely gifted batsman indeed for in one State game he hit a brisk 452 in World Record time. In 1930 Bradman was again selected in the Australian team which took six weeks to sail to England, the Series itself was a most successful one with Bradman scoring 974 test runs. In 1932 at the age of 24 "The Don" as he became known as married Jessie Menzies a girl from his hometown.
