Another 300 Scored By Don Bradman
Record-smasher is still Don Bradman’s middle name. He does not get cannier as he gets older. In Adelaide last month he let loose, and his batting wizardry carried him from one century to another and on to a third—3o3 in three hours 42 minutes. It was for Kensington against Glenelg that Bradman made this huge'addition to an’ already wonderfully-imposing list of big scores. He reached the 100 mark in 101 minutes, and: hit-, up the next hundred in 86 minutes. ' ; Then the might of the wonder cricketer was revealed in full.-He trounced the bowling mercilessly in adding the third century in the sensational time of 35 minutes. Through Bradman the Kensington side had a most profitable afternoon. They made 439 for five wickets.
