Ok, I'll start looking soon Jimfbleak - talk to me? 13:46, 9 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

OK, first thoughts. The lead is supposed to be a summary of the article, as such it shouldn't normally have references, since either they are repeats of what is in the text or they are supporting material that occurs only in the lead, which therefore isn't just a summary.

He is regarded as one of the best batsmen in the world What in the text is this a summary of? Also you give two refs for this. The second doesn't say that, and isn't a good enough source even if it did, given that it's largely quoting his team-mates. The first does say that, and the BBC is a good RS source, but it's ones person's opinion, not a fact. If you have to say it, put "He has been described as....

- Good morning! Removed references from lead section which are in the text. Binod Basnet ^Talk 00:25, 11 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Jimfbleak Sir, I made some changes in lead section. Binod Basnet ^Talk 01:38, 16 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about the delay, I made these edits, please check.

It's not appropriate to reference his book to a commercial sales site. Put the book details in a Bibliography or Publications section without a link, you don't then need an in text reference.

I'll have another read tomorrow, Jimfbleak - talk to me? 14:29, 18 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

That's all right. Added separate Bibliography section. Thank you. Binod Basnet ^Talk 02:07, 19 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
