From just 37 Ashes test matches, Bradman made 5028 runs from his 63 innings with 7 times remaining not out. He averaged 89.78 against England which, surprisingly, is less than his career average of 99.96 versus all countries. Don Bradman also has the distinction of scoring more century against England than half centuries, with highest score of 334 which he made at Leeds in July 1930 which still the second highest Ashes test score.
