ON THIS DAY
1930: Don Bradman became the first Australian to score a Test century at Trent Bridge, one of the 11 he scored on English soil. Despite his 131-run second innings knock, Australia lost by 93 runs and the game was also notable for the appearance of a substitute fielder for England, Sydney Copley. His catch at mid on to dismiss Stan Mccabe was a key moment as Australia were 229-3 in pursuit of 429 to win.
