Bradman and McCabe Shine in 342 Run Day at Melbourne
In Melbourne Bradman and McCabe forged a record third wicket stand to propel Australia to 342 for 3 at stumps after a dramatic day. Bradman reached a quick century in 127 minutes while McCabe followed with a lucid hundred, amid a roaring crowd of about 60,000. The pair added 149 for the third wicket as Allen, Verity, and Worthington bowled, but the opening batter's edge and sharp fielding left the innings well poised for the final day.
