... that cricketer Atharva Ankolekar's father placed a cricket bat near his ~~son's~~ crib on the day he was born? Source: "On the day their first son was born, in 2000, he placed a bat next to the baby's crib in the hospital."
- ALT1:~~... that cricketer Atharva Ankolekar had a cricket bat near his crib on the day of his birth?~~ Source: Same as above

Article looks like it has no issues, hook is interesting, long enough, no copyvio. However, the hook needs to be directly cited in the article. I am suggesting maybe ALT1a: ~~"... that cricketer Atharva Ankolekar had a cricket bat placed near his crib by his father on the day of his birth?"~~ as to re-add the father's role. Let me know what you think and when you update the article. Nice4What (talk · contribs) – (Don't forget to share a Thanks ♥) 15:27, 9 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for reviewing this. I have cited the source directly after the sentence now and added a QPQ review too. I am OK with ALT1a. Dee 03 18:53, 9 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Perfect. Ready for second review. Nice4What (talk · contribs) – (Don't forget to share a Thanks ♥) 21:29, 9 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Second review: New enough, long enough, neutrally written, well referenced. As Earwig's is down, unable to check for close paraphrasing. The first hook is best written, interesting, verified, and cited inline. QPQ done. ALT0 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 19:30, 19 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
