Don Bradman in popular culture information


Don Bradman statue at the Adelaide Oval

The appearances of former Australian cricketer Don Bradman in popular culture are many and varied. As a player, he first came to prominence during the 1928/29 season. His record-breaking performances on the 1930 tour of England made him a national hero in Australia. Bradman was a private person who did not enjoy the adulation associated with his fame. In cricket, a batsman who enjoys an exceptional run of form over an extended period is sometimes called Bradmanesque.[1][2][3]

Bradman's name has become a generic term for outstanding excellence, both within cricket and in the wider world.
