Allan Donald is surely one of the greatest fast bowlers to emerge from South Africa. His repute as a genuine fast bowler in ODIs is evident from the fact that he captured 272 wickets in just 164 matches. Happy to have my friend ChrisTheDude as a co-nominator. We look forward to your comments and suggestions. —Vensatry _{(Ping me)} 08:54, 13 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The caption of the Donald's pic should be more informative.
- Not really sure what more there is to say? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:52, 21 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  - You can add anything about Donald. Something like "Donald took 22 five-wicket hauls in international cricket." ♛♚★Vaibhav Jain★♚♛ ^Talk ^Email 10:34, 21 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Overs++??

Drawn should be linked at first usage.

Economy rate should be in the format 2.00, 3.00 and 4.00
- Sorted -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 11:50, 1 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The table says that fifer no. 17 and 18 were in the same match instead of fifer no.18 and 19.

Row scope should rather be for the Wickets column. ♛♚★Vaibhav Jain★♚♛ ^Talk ^Email 06:34, 21 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- Are you 100% sure on that last one? There seem to be varying ways to do this - List of international cricket five-wicket hauls by Dennis Lillee has the scopes on the match dates.....? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:00, 8 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  - IMO row scopes aren't necessary in the fifers list as there is no single important column. I got this idea from User:SpacemanSpiff when he was working on Anil Kumble's list. —Vensatry _{(Ping me)} 15:44, 8 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You wait a while before linking "bowler"...

"only 40 bowlers have at least 15 five-wicket hauls" I think it's 41. Double-check that source.

Link bowling figures, perhaps to Bowling analysis?
- Sorted -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 11:48, 1 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
"This career best bowling figures of him is the second best " reads weirdly to me. "These are his career-best bowling figures, and are the second best..." or something.

I know he made his ODI debut first, but the article reads odd when you have ODI then Test in the lead followed by Test then ODI in the tables.

What's the strategy on batsmen names? You have W.V. Raman and Mike Atherton for instance...
