England cricket team Test results (1960–1974)

 * Nominator(s): Harrias  talk 12:53, 24 February 2020 (UTC)

Two years after the last one, this is the next in the series, and follows the format established in the FLs England cricket team Test results (1877–1914), England cricket team Test results (1920–1939) and England cricket team Test results (1946–1959). I have hopefully applied all the comments and feedback from those lists into this one, but I'm sure you'll all find plenty to bring up nevertheless! As always, all feedback appreciated.

Accessibility

As I've spent a little time looking at the list, I'll add a quick accessibility review. There are no accessibility concerns (though I'd add the caption to the 'Summary' table, as there is one for the 'Key' table). Hope you find that useful. --RexxS (talk) 23:23, 28 February 2020 (UTC)

 * A link to Draw (cricket) will be helpful.
 * Added. Harrias  talk 19:52, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Same for Run (cricket).
 * Added. Harrias  talk 19:52, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
 * UK cricket council should be replaced by Test and County Cricket Board, and a link should be added.
 * They are subtly different things; it is more accurate to say that they left the UKCC. Harrias  talk 19:52, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
 * "was their second largest defeat in Test history" -> "is their second-largest defeat in Test history"
 * Changed to "remains their second largest defeat in Test history". Harrias  talk 19:52, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
 * There should be consistency between the Key table and the main table. Plainrowheader has been used in the latter but not in the former.
 * They are different tables with different purposes, I don't see any specific advantage in formatting them the same; what is there seems to work best, aesthetically. Harrias  talk 19:52, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
 * I think that it might be a better idea to have a separate column indicating Home/Away, which can span across rows like the Series column. It will then be possible for one to sort by the type of ground.
 * I think you might be right on this one, as I was working through, I was pondering why I had it like I did. I will just go back through and check it wasn't in response to a request from another reviewer before making the change though. Harrias  talk 19:52, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
 * It seems that the MA Chidambaram Stadium was called the Madras Cricket Club Ground back then, but I can't find the exact year in which it was renamed.
 * Mumbai was known as Bombay back then.
 * Kolkata was known as Calcutta.
 * Chennai was known as Madras.
 * Hmm, odd, I was sure I had done these, but no matter, all done now. Harrias  talk 19:52, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Feroz Shah Kotla has been renamed to Arun Jaitley Stadium, so maybe a note about that. However, the ground is still called Kotla and only the stadium has been renamed. I am not completely sure how this should be handled.
 * The link redirects fine, so I don't see any need to change anything here. Harrias  talk 19:52, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Dacca is now known as Dhaka. A note can be added for that.
 * Again, the link goes to the right place, so this one is fine. Harrias  talk 19:52, 3 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Gaddafi Stadium was known as Lahore Stadium back then.
 * Changed. Harrias  talk 19:52, 3 March 2020 (UTC)

 * "after pressure from the British Home Secretary, James Callaghan." - this sentence would be better off rewritten to avoid a violation of MOS:SEAOFBLUE
 * Thanks ; I rephrased it to "from James Callaghan, the British Home Secretary." Harrias  talk 20:07, 12 March 2020 (UTC)
