It is said that Bradman’s father took him to watch the Fifth Ashes Test Match at the Sydney Cricket Ground, and upon that day, he vowed “I shall never be satisfied, until I play on this ground.” That’s one thing many people will be looking forward to in the boy’s bright future. What would be rather unusual is that Don just a couple years ago, gave up the game of cricket to pursue two years of tennis, however he came back into the game two years ago, and by the looks

so, I went to cricket coaching with the same excitement and energy from the match I’d seen. I did every single drill the coach asked me to do: ranging from running across a lake (the total length was 5 kilometers) to shadow practicing until I perfected the form of my shot.

For many years, drug testing on athletes has been a source of contention.People debate whether athletes should not be drug tested or if they should be.
