For the 34 cites, unfortunately, the cricket website software only has the means for dynamically building a stats page of breakdown of performances, batting positions, patterns etc for Test/ODI matches between two countries. For other first-class matches, it does not have this functionality. So I had to look up all 34 match records to verify he was always 9/10/11 in the batting order. The Test match search engine would have automatically created a page that summarised "Batting performances by position..."

Perhaps a single note with all 34 links might be better? As with your other nomination, my apologies for the delay in reassessment.— Bellhalla (talk) 16:45, 24 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
