  • An excerpt of Don Bradman in 'How I Play Cricket', directed by Paulette McDonagh (Australia 1932).
    In this clip, a young Donald Bradman demonstrates the innovative methods he used to develop his reflexes, hand-eye coordination and concentration when he was an aspiring cricketer growing up in Bowral. Bradman is shown hitting a golf ball against a water tank with a cricket stump, and demonstrates taking some classic catches from a paling fence.
    Paulette McDonagh was one of three remarkable sisters who made history in 1926 by becoming the first Australian women to own and run a film production company. Professionally known as the 'McDonagh Sisters', they were among the first to produce a 'talkie' in Australia. Their collaborations led to both feature-length dramas and documentaries, with Paulette working as the director and writer, Phyllis as a producer and Isabel acting under the name 'Marie Lorraine'.

The jealous smart-arse at the other end shall deliberately run you out and then sanctimoniously go " Too slow Too slow ".

      @@checkpoops6752 Well, someone's gotta do it. When it gets down to it its a matter of pumping that ball 22 yards down the wicket in such a manner as to maximise the stroke play difficulty for the batsman on strike. And the entire heirarchy is a pyramid thing. You gotta get into first grade in any region. And it goes usually right on down to at least 4th grade. First grade ANYWHERE in the State is technically, at least, the next thing down from no less than First Class. No bull here. There ain't no other divisional rungs in between, on cursory examination, except for maybe academies, etc, which is maybe where most of the bias and favoritism comes in. But outside the Capital cities you gotta shine like all buggery to get noticed, because, in the context of the entire State, there is a multiplicity of first grade compared to First Class and the metropolitan would tend to hog it..

      @liamcalemari4579 2 года назад +1

      that was a common misconception, he used underarm the ball at the round surface and then when it bounced back at him unpredictably he would use the stump and play the correct shot that being a straight drive, cut shot, late cut etc, depending on where the ball was. re-watch the clip and you will see what I mean.

      Bradman played mostly against pace bowlers. He was actually considered weakest against quality spin bowlers. For example his top score of 334 in 1930 had the following bowlers
      - Larwood - one of the fastest of the game
      - Tate - accurate swing bowler with Test average of 26.2. Took 5 wickets in that innings
      - Geary - quality fast-medium bowler
      - Tyldesley - legspin with tremendous success at county level. Limited opportunities to play for England
      - Hammond - part-time pace bowler, but very strong and capable of bowling very quickly and took 83 wickets at 37.8
      - Leyland - part-time off spinner.

    • @lovemetu
      @lovemetu 7 лет назад

      Bradman could not handle the pace of Larwood, so because of all the problems that series caused, the MCC never picked Larwood for England again and soon after got rid of Jardine.

    • @JPH1138
      @JPH1138 7 лет назад +10

      Bradman still averaged 56.57 that series. That's not under the thumb by any other players' standards.
      Jardine didn't have much to teach Australia. Never scored a ton against them, in fact he managed just the one from over 30 test innings. Ten fifties was a decent effort but those are Shane Watson figures for converting.
      Worth noting that if animosity was directed at Larwood it didn't stick. Though ostracised in his homeland he was treated very well when he migrated to Australia in the 1950s where he lived for the rest of his days.

    I remain very sceptical about Bradman's ability and records. I never saw him bat, of course, but neither did those who will rush to condemn me for my scepticism. What has been established over the years is that Australian home umpires were cheats who gave blatanly cheating decisions in favour of Australian cricketers and against non-Australian cricketers. They got away with it for decades and for all lof Bradman's era. That casts a large shadow of doubt and questions about how much of Bradman's achievements was real and how much was contrived by dishonest Australian umpires, It was that dishonesty that forced the introduction of "neutral" umpires. How many times did Bradman walk during his test career when he knew he was out even though the umpire said not out? The truly great batsmen walk when umpires either make mistakes or try to cheat. I do not believe that 99 test average was achieved fairly.

      During Bradman’s time, there were no helmets, no guards, thin pads, thin bats, incredibly fast bowlers, uneven pitch, slowest outfield, and possibly longer boundaries than now. And you said Australian umpires were dishonest and biased?? If they were too biased on Australian players then most of the Australian batsman would have had more than 70-80 test average and they would’ve scored 1000 runs every innings. You’re simply nothing but a hater can’t accept the fact that Sir Don Bradman is the greatest batsman of all time.
