International Impact:
Top Australian sportsmen made a big impact on the image of Australia, particularly up until about 1970, and most particularly before the War because the country was so isolated from the rest of the world that for much of the world, only its most elite sportsmen were what was known of the country overseas, other than its kangaroos.
National Impact:
Bradman was like Magic in his timing to the Australian psyche. Considering that many of his extraordinary feats took place during the Great Depression and World War II, his entry and effect was like finding a "diamond in the rough"! It was like a hope-giver re Mankind.
The die-hard Aussies identified with him; and people look to lights like Don when the world seems glum and the chips are down.
He was certainly something special to cricket around the world in general.
