The following is a Gordon cricket historians biased view on the comparison between Victor Trumper and Sir Donald Bradman, considered the best two batsman who ever played for Australia. Make your own mind up as to who you would have preferred to go and watch.
Test Records:
Player Matches Innings NO Runs HS Avg Balls 100’s 50’s 4’s 6’s
Bradman 52 80 10 6996 334 99.9 9684 29 13 681 6
Trumper 48 89 8 3163 214* 39.0 1339 8 13 260 4
The comparisons are obvious when looking at totals, centuries, average and total runs. One comparison, however, that is not often looked at is that Trumper scored most of his runs offshore, where wickets were uncovered and often very wet.
