List of players who have scored 10,000 or more runs in One Day International cricket

 * Nominator(s): &mdash; Vensatry (ping) 09:31, 22 August 2015 (UTC)

Yet another cricket list. This is probably the first-of-its-kind for a batsmen list. Comments and suggestions are welcome &mdash; Vensatry (ping) 09:31, 22 August 2015 (UTC)

Ironically, given a recent discussion, I'm concerned that this might be a 3(b) violation as a content fork of List of One Day International cricket records. Harrias talk 09:49, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Umm, given that we have 11 entries I feel this could well be forked out. With Gayle, Dhoni, ABD, and Kohli in the lineup, this is expected to grow in the near future. I'm not supporting WP:OSE, but we have an existing FL—List of bowlers who have taken over 300 wickets in Test cricket. Plus, you seemed to have supported the creation of these lists. &mdash; Vensatry (ping) 11:13, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
 * So I did. I'm not personally opposing the list on this basis, but I just mentioned it as it was fresh in my mind. Harrias talk 11:15, 22 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Are you willing to proceed further, if you're convinced it's not a 3(b) issue? &mdash; Vensatry (ping) 17:23, 13 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Would it be possible to add a columns listing the number of matches taken to reach 10,000 runs. The "span" for time is good, but having the same for matches would be useful. Harrias talk 13:42, 16 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Good one, but innings? &mdash; Vensatry (ping) 18:11, 16 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Yes, innings would make more sense than matches. Harrias talk 19:19, 16 September 2015 (UTC)
 * That's a vital statistic. Added &mdash; Vensatry (ping) 03:54, 18 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Does it need mentioning in the "team" column, or elsewhere, that some of these players have appeared for other teams in ODIs, such as the ICC World XI, Asia XI, etc? Harrias talk 09:33, 28 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Good one. FNs added &mdash; Vensatry (ping) 11:56, 28 September 2015 (UTC)
 * The note might be better placed in the team column I think? Harrias talk 14:17, 28 September 2015 (UTC)
 * I may have to cite the notes in the 'Team' column again by replicating the same refs. &mdash; Vensatry (ping) 15:27, 28 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Support all my concerns addressed, thanks. The Rambling Man (talk) 18:38, 9 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Support - all looks good -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:32, 28 September 2015 (UTC)
 * The table looks fine, but I am concerned about the lead. I don't think it reads very well: some sentences have clumsy phrasing while the whole thing would work better in a different order. I've redrafted it here. You can see a comparison of the two versions here. I'd be reluctant to support the list as it currently stands. Relentlessly (talk) 11:19, 30 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks for all the work that you've put in to improve the prose. I've made some changes to the prose though not exactly the way you suggested. &mdash; Vensatry (ping) 11:08, 1 October 2015 (UTC)
 * OK,, I've made a couple of small changes that were necessary. But this looks much better now. Support. Relentlessly (talk) 11:29, 1 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Closing note: This candidate has been promoted, but there may be a delay in bot processing of the close.  Please see WP:FLC/ar, and leave the featured list candidates template in place on the talk page until the bot goes through.  Giants2008  ( Talk ) 18:39, 4 October 2015 (UTC)
