- Don Bradman lays the groundwork:
In a tour match against Worcestershire, Sir Don Bradman took his game to a whole new level.
Way back in 1930, Australia toured England for a test series and started that tour with a game against Worcestershire. The hosts were bundled out for just 131 runs and the visitors made sure that they take full advantage of the tour game.
They scored 492 in the first innings thanks to centuries from Woodfull and Bradman. Bradman was a class apart in the game as he scored 236 runs and made a statement before the start of the series.
He went on to score another 185 not out in his next innings, against Leicestershire proving his class overseas.
