Lord Bradman, perhaps, second-to-none (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

adonai

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'lord' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'bradman perhaps second-to-none' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'bradman' could be 'don' and 'don' is found in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for adonai that I've seen before include "Name for God (Hebrew)" , "Lord" , "in God's name" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
