I was fortunate to receive this hand-written letter dated 2nd November 1999 from the peerless Sir Donald Bradman.
When the legendary batsman passed away at the age of 92 just over a year-and-a-quarter later on 25th February 2001, I wrote an article on this letter which was published in The Times of India of 5th March 2001.
I have published The Don’s letter and the article in his biography ‘Don’s Century’ that I wrote during the year of his birth centenary.
The letter is also published in my ‘The Big Book of World Cup Cricket 1975-2011’, ISBN 978-81-901668-4-3.
