• I will review this. Review coming in a couple of days. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 10:50, 3 January 2015 (UTC)

• Medium pace bowling should be linked in the lead.
• Can we get an inline citation for the "grossly inflated" expenses?
• Can we get an inline citation for the notion that his confidence was affected by the shooting accident?
• (Might be a bit picky) but Should really clarify it was Dublin, Ireland
• "If the MCC v Australians match at Lord's was the greatest of the season, then the Surrey v Gloucestershire match was the most controversial; and it left a nasty taste for several months afterwards." Bit POV with WP:WEASEL words there. Should really be reworded and cited.
• Why is there a separate section for just the Gentlemen vs Australians in June? I think that leaves a bit of a hole in the article. If it is only one match, Might be best to merge it if it is just one match.
• "Gloucestershire's greatest years in the championship had followed and they were again expected to be in contention as the county fixtures began in 1878." Source? Also I think a bit WEASELy
• "EM", don't you mean E.M.?
• In Canterbury Cricket Week, It talks about a Kent XIII and England XI but we have a "Twelve of Kent" mentioned as well. Where does that come from?
• You linked £ in the expenses section, however it should be linked at first mention not the last
• Source 22, the title of the publisher should be similar to the cricket archive title.
• A lot of the book sources don't have ISBNs. Is there a reason for this?

I reckon it is almost there. Though maybe if you had all the stats in a table, it would be better as a FL. Nevertheless, if you can sort these issues, I'll have another look. At the moment on hold. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 10:44, 6 January 2015 (UTC)

It has been 20 days and nothing has been done so I am presuming this to be abandoned so I'm failing this for the moment. The C of E God Save the Queen! (talk) 09:10, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
