A complete list of everyone who's captained Pakistan at official international level. This one's got more pictures too, SmokeDog 07:59, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)

  • Is there a difference between "drawn" and "no result"? And could we line up the columns? --Dmcdevit 08:28, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)
    • IIRC, Test matches can be "drawn" (or "tied"); ODIs cannot, but can end in "no result". -- ALoan (Talk) 11:08, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)
      • A test match which lasts for 5 days is drawn; if either team cannot force a win on the 5th day. An ODI match which lasts for 7hrs is called off N/R if at the end of the alloted time no play is possible (certain other rules also apply); for example due to rain. A tie is if both teams land up on the exact same score and no further legal play is possible. =Nichalp «Talk»= 11:25, Jun 22, 2005 (UTC)
      • I don't know how to line up the columns. If someone can do it on one list, or point me to another page where it's done, I'll copy the technique into the other national cricket captain lists, SmokeDog 20:45, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)
  • Good list; in addition to Dmcdevit's comments, why not wikilink the country names in the location column? And generating some stubs about the more proficient women and youth cricket captains would be helpful too, to reduce the number of red links at the bottom of the page. --Spangineer (háblame) 11:00, Jun 22, 2005 (UTC)
  • A good list, but most of the images seem to be flagged as {{PUI}} - are there any with acceptable copyright status? -- ALoan (Talk) 11:08, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)

  • Oppose - too many red links. The criteria state that "a large majority" of links must be blue; 16/24 in the test captains is fine, but there are virtually no blue links among the youth and women cricketers. OpenToppedBus - My Talk July 1, 2005 14:00 (UTC)
