Bradman's Best Ashes Teams
'Sir Donald was the best selector I came across in the game anywhere in the world.' - Richie Bernaud.
Sir Donald Bradman saw all but a few of the 20th Century's greatest cricketers play the game. Apart from being cricket's most successful player and captain, Bradman built a reputation over five decades as the game's most knowledgeable and incisive selector.
In exclusive interviews and correspondence with his biographer, Roland Perry, Bradman shares his thoughts on the world's best cricketers, his greatest ever Ashes teams, and why he chose their illustrious members. A very special addition to this book is the inclusion of Bradman's selection of the Top Five batting and bowling performances he witnessed, plus his own assessment of his five best innings in Ashes Tests. As well as Bradman's compelling revelations and thoughts on cricket's most celebrated exponents and the way the game has developed over the decades, this long-awaited book also contains engrossing portraits of his selections, who forever will be known as Bradman's Best Ashes Teams.
