Just a quick comment, but it might be a good idea to specify that Headingley is near Leeds or is in the UK as the place may be too obscure for global readers. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 14:29, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Narutolovehinata5; I have amended the hook. Rcsprinter123 (prattle) 18:45, 9 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This article is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no policy issues. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 17:28, 22 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
