- Definition
- "...of equivalent difficulty to football's offside rule." - it may seem a little pedantic, but given there are multiple codes of football, of which more than one has an offside rule, it would make sense to specify that this refers to association football
- The link was already to association football, but point taken and I have clarified it. --Sarastro1 (talk) 20:26, 29 March 2012 (UTC)
- Alteration to the law
- "you will see the wicketkeeper standing back and a meditum pace bowler in action" - I assume that is a typo of "medium"?
- Yes, and a slightly embarrassing one! --Sarastro1 (talk) 20:26, 29 March 2012 (UTC)
- Effects of technology
- "Analysis by Douglas Miller indicates..." - Who is Douglas Miller? If he is a noted expert, it would help to state that. Right now I read as "Random guy says..."
- Done. --Sarastro1 (talk) 20:26, 29 March 2012 (UTC)
- Trends
- Is there any noted trends outside of the English county leagues? Places such as Australia or in international matches?
- There may be, but to the best of my knowledge there has been no analysis of it in a reliable source. It is probably possible to do this analysis for international matches as there are some very impressive stats engines for international cricket, but to do so may be too close to OR for comfort. --Sarastro1 (talk) 20:26, 29 March 2012 (UTC)
- Indeed. I worried that would be the case. Given there wasn't much that needed work to begin with, I am now passing the article. Congrats! Resolute 00:39, 30 March 2012 (UTC)
- Overall
- An excellent article. As someone with a just-slightly-above-basic understanding of cricket, I found the article easy to read and understand. I am pretty much ready to pass the article as-is, but want to put it on hold briefly to see if my question on trends has an answer. Cheers, Resolute 23:45, 28 March 2012 (UTC)
