'In this book I have advocated what I conscientiously believe to be the best and most effective method of playing the grand old game and as far as possible I play 100 per cent along the lines set out in this volumne.

Herein you will find no difficult scientific explanations. I have purposely avoided them. Practical common sense in one's play is very often more effective than any textbook can be.'

Sir Donald George Bradman, (1908-2001), is widely acknowledged as the greatest Test batsman in the history of the game. His career Test batting average of 99.94 is often cited as the greatest achievement in any major sport.

The story of how young Bradman practiced with a cricket stump and a golf ball is part of cricketing folklore. His meteoric rise to the Teat team took just two years. He captained the team for twelve years and did not lost a single rubber.
