The Australian government are to invest $6.5m in a "cricket hall of fame" - two galleries showcasing cricket from 1970 onwards - to be built in Sir Donald Bradman's home town of Bowral. The Australian has the full story.
Work on the galleries at the Bradman Museum of Cricket would start almost immediately and should be finished by February 2009 to mark the 60th anniversary the cricketing legend's last game.
“My government support will ensure that the Bradman museum remains one of the best museums in the world,” New Ltd quoted Mr Howard as saying. Bowral is in the safe Liberal seat of Hume.
