Scoreboard at the Oval, 1948:

D.G. Bradman b Hollies 0
A.R. Morris 100*

Sums it up for me.

Trumble. Probably our greatest ever offie and easily our best bowler for an extended period in the Golden Age.

Brown was a terrific cricketer, but his career was fractured by the war - too much to make an accurate judgement.

Trumble for sure, best off-spinner to come out of Australia in amongst of great line of leg-spinners.
