Number of columns under Career statistics header

Is it possible to have 6 columns instead of 4 under Career statistics header in cricketer Infobox ?

e.g. - Test cricket. One day international, Twenty20 International, T20 domestic, First-class cricket, List A cricket Sunak2310 (talk) 16:53, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Display problems under International information

Something is wrong with the way the template displays piped links: for example, on Abdul Rahman Rahmani under International information, it displays

National side: [[Afghanistan national cricket team|Afghanistan]] and

ODI debut (cap [[List of Afghanistan ODI cricketers|57]]) flod logic (talk) 08:26, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Template-protected edit request on 14 July 2024

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

1) Please make the T20I stats appear in all the player's career statistics (T20I format is International form of 20 over cricket) The column should take precedence over LA (List A) cricket as that is now limited to domestic cricket (Cricket played on a national level).

2) Please make the Strike Rate Stat appear as along with average it is an important metric for classification on both batters and bowlers in Cricket nowadays

3) I would suggest a timeframe for displaying LA vs T20I for players. The first T20I was played in 2005 (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twenty20) and the oldest T20I player to play was 59 years old (https://www.espncricinfo.com/records/oldest-players-on-debut-283460). I would suggest the cut off date be kept at 60 years (1945)

I would like you to please make these changes after thorough thought

Thank You in Advance😀 AR98211 (talk) 13:13, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. —⁠andrybak (talk) 22:26, 14 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hall of Fame parameter

I was thinking this template should include a Hall of Fame parameter, similar to how the NBA recognizes basketball players. For example. WikiEnthusiast1001 (talk) 23:04, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Seasons not years

In the 'domestic team information' section should the first column not be titled seasons rather than years as per the Brett Lee example it is 1997/98–2010/11 rather than 1997-2010. JP (Talk) 09:23, 6 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
