Bradman's baggy green from historic home series against India up for auction


SYDNEY: A rare Baggy Green cap worn by the legendary Sir Donald Bradman during a 1947/48 series against India is set to go under the hammer next month. Bradman gifted the cap to Indian all-rounder Sriranga Wasudev Sohoni during the series, which marked India's first international cricket tour as an independent nation. Unlike most surviving Baggy Green caps from Bradman's era, many of which are preserved in museums or closely held private collections, this cap has never been publicly displayed or offered for sale. The Test cricketers of Bradman's era wore a different cap for each series. It's not the first of Bradman's caps to be sold as a baggy green from the same India series fetched a staggering Rs 2.63 crore last year.
