Date and length fine. However with the hook I would really like to pass alt1 however the wording in the article is a bit more subtle than the hook's claim that having the greatest cricketer in history referee did something "illegal". If it can be reworded in the article, I'll be happy to pass it. QPQ is done, and there is no close paraphrasing. Template:Ping IF you can chnge that wording in the article, I'll be happy to pass it. Please ping me when you've done it. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 09:21, 11 November 2017 (UTC)
