National Film and Sound Archive of Australia has released the only known colour footage of Sir Donald Bradman batting for the sports lovers after 71 years. The video was shot at the Sydney Cricket Ground on 26 February 1949 during a testimonial match months after his Test retirement. Sir Don Bradman is considered as one of the best batsmen to have played the sport, not only for Australia but in the history of cricket.
