  • "known for sponsorship purposes as the 2010 Friends Provident t20 Final" this isn't mentioned in the article, just the lead, and isn't ref'ed.
  • Added into Background. Harrias talk 07:41, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
  • Could mention the umpires in the lead.
  • Don't think they warrant a mention. Harrias talk 21:48, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
  • Any idea of the attendance?
  • Bizarrely, no. It was clearly a sell out (although technically, a lot of supporters of the losing semi-finalists left before the final). It must be somewhere, but I can't see anything about it. Will keeping looking. Harrias talk 21:48, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
  • "Twenty20 competition" do you mean "Twenty20 Cup" here?
  • Done. Harrias talk 21:48, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
  • " their third final and " drop "final".
  • Done. Harrias talk 21:48, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
  • "won the title based on the fact they had lost fewer" -> "won the title having lost fewer"
  • Done. Harrias talk 21:48, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
  • 'Benson & Hedges Cup' why in apostrophes?
  • Done. Harrias talk 21:48, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
  • "to leave the county" probably better to say "club"
  • Done. Harrias talk 21:48, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
  • "given odds of 8–1 by" doesn't sound great for a favourite, but could be more easily understood if you said how many teams were in the contest.
  • I have added more context. Harrias talk 07:41, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
  • "they were touted" Somerset were touted...
  • Done. Harrias talk 21:48, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
  • Link "ball" first time.
  • Done. Harrias talk 21:48, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
  • D–L uses an en-dash.
  • Done. Harrias talk 21:48, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
  • " as "murky". Kieswetter" ref quote.
  • It is covered by the next reference. Harrias talk 21:48, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
  • " he'd faced" he had..
  • Done. Harrias talk 21:48, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
  • "got out " -> "were dismissed"
  • Done. Harrias talk 21:48, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
  • Might need to link fielding positions.
  • Added some links. Harrias talk 07:41, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
  • "inside edge " jargon? Link?
  • Linked. Harrias talk 07:41, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
  • "and 2 sixes" two.
  • I find that placing two numbers next to each other in the same format is a tad confusing: "two sixes" or "2 6s". Hence I mis-match: "2 sixes" or "two 6s". Harrias talk 21:48, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
  • Link "run out".
  • Done. Harrias talk 21:48, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
  • "not lbw" you didn't abbreviate this before i.e. (lbw) after the linked expanded version.
  • Done. Harrias talk 21:48, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
  • "the Daily Telegraph," -> "The Daily Telegraph"
  • Done. Harrias talk 21:48, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
  • Link "laws" to Laws of Cricket.
  • Done. Harrias talk 21:48, 2 April 2020 (UTC)
  • "In the 2011 Twenty20 Cup, Hampshire.." hereafter all unreferenced.
  • Oops, missed this one. References now. Harrias talk 07:50, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
  • Spaced hyphens in the ref titles should be spaced en-dashes.
  • Done. Harrias talk 21:48, 2 April 2020 (UTC)

That's all I have, on hold. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 17:17, 2 April 2020 (UTC)

:{{ping|The Rambling Man}} Cheers for the review as always. I have responded to each above. Feel free to be harsh, this is one that I hope to move onto FA at some point in the future. Harrias talk 07:41, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

:::No worries. It easily passes GA criteria so I'm promoting. If you do take it to FAC, ping me and I'll make sure it gets at least one review!! Cheers. The Rambling Man (Staying alive since 2005!) 07:55, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
