Bradman's Duck: The Sad Farewell at Kennington Oval 1948

Bradman's Sad Farewell: A display featuring an official printed scorecard from the 5th Test at Kennington Oval, August 1948, recording Bradman's duck in Australia's first (and only) innings. Australia had dismissed England for 52 and made 389 in the first innings, with Arthur Morris making 196. England were all out for 188 in their 2nd innings, meaning Australia (and, in particular, Bradman) did not need to bat again. Lindwall took 9 wickets for the match. Had Bradman been required to bat again he would only have needed to make 4 runs to have an average of 100.00 on retirement, instead of the 99.94 with which we are so familiar.
