A GREAT BATSMAN
BRADMAN STILL AUSTRALIA’S BEST ACCORDING TO BRITISH COMMENTATORS. “A SHADE BETTER THAN. EVER.” (Recd This Day, 12.50 p.m.) LONDON, May 15. Mr Howard Marshall, writing in the “Daily Telegraph” says: “Subtract Bradman’s score and We see the Australians’ remaining batting strength in full perspective. Doubtless McCabe and his colleagues will make plenty of -runs, but we have batsmen who can keep pace . with them and bowlers capable of dismissing them. Bradman remains a decided drag on our optimism.” Mr Marshall expresses the opinion that this remarkable little man (Bradman) is perhaps a shade better than ever. “The Times” says Bradman is better and better every time he goes in. The Marylebone bowling was worthy of a Test match.
