This handout picture released by the Australian Mint August 26, 2008 in Canberra shows a AU$S5.00 ($4.27) coin honouring Australian cricketer Sir Donald Bradman saluting the crowd after making a century. Sir Donald George Bradman, (27 August 1908- 25 February 2001), often referred to as 'The Don', widely acknowledged as the greatest batsman of all time.
Bradman's career Test batting average of 99.94 has been claimed to be statistically the greatest achievement in any major sport. During a 20-year playing career, Bradman consistently scored at a level that made him, in the words of former Australia captain Bill Woodfull, "worth three batsmen to Australia". A controversial set of tactics, known as Bodyline, was specifically devised by the England team to curb his scoring. As a captain and administrator Bradman was committed to attacking, entertaining cricket; he drew spectators in record numbers.
