Is he really the best?
I'm not so sure, things were a lot different back then.
I mean to say, how would he hold up against modern day bolwers?
From what i remember of the "bodyline" series, he didn't like the ball aimed at his body!
How would he fare nowadays now that the bowlers pick the batsmans weaknesses and go for it?
If it was recognised early in bradmans career that he didn't like the short ball, and it had been utilised against him as it would be these days, would his average still be 99.94?
I think not, i just wonder how much it would have affected him if his weakness had been used against him during his whole career, instead of in just one series?
