Article is new enough, long enough, neutral, and well referenced. Hook is interesting and verified with multiple sources. I've removed the unnecessary words "considered to be", as the sources are unequivocal about the fact. QPQ is done. No copyvio found. Good to go. -Zanhe (talk) 21:57, 7 October 2019 (UTC)
- Thanks for the review. I added those words because, although multiple sources state it as a fact, it is not one of those verifiable "first woman to win the Nobel Prize" kind of facts. Maybe there were other lesser-known women who coached cricketers before her. I don't mind it being worded either way though. Dee03 16:21, 8 October 2019 (UTC)
- @Zanhe: I have added an ALT hook which is more interesting than the original:
- ALT1:... that people preferred male coaches over Sunita Sharma, India's first woman cricket coach, during her initial days? Source: "Even the parents were reluctant to send their kids to me and would rather prefer my male counterparts." [3] Dee03 17:50, 8 October 2019 (UTC)
