Story Time 290 – When Gavaskar did what Bradman couldn't
It’s Story Time, our weekly walk through cricket history. This week, one question: was there any game played in the 19th century that wasn't at Lord's? A self-styled pioneer with a pseudonym certainly got his fill of pavilion lunches. Also, do South Australians play for South Australia? We test facts against myth, as well as an unlikely trip to Los Angeles, and a clean sweep even rarer than we imagined.
