ALT3:... that 2020's Dambulla Viiking changed its name from Dambulla Hawks to Dambulla Lions and later finalized Dambulla Viiking? Source:

ALT4:... that in 2020, Dambulla Viiking, 'Dambulla Hawks' changed its name to 'Dambulla Lions' and 10 days later, finalized 'Dambulla Viiking'? Source:

I edited the article and added a number of tags where information is not clear. I removed the Game 4 write-up, which seems to be about two different teams other than the Viiking. It's not clear which team the players belong to in Game 5.

I think I've corrected it. Thank you.

@
Empire AS: thank you. But what about Game 4? And that word "However" in Game 5 is throwing me off; could you identify which teams the players in the previous sentence play for?

@
Yoninah:, I've corrected it too :). But a user has raised some issues about team articles on
Talk:Galle Gladiators in 2020 which I think should be solved first. Thank you.

This is part of a multi-article hook, as explained at the main nomination,
Template:Did you know nominations/Jaffna Stallions in 2020. QPQ not required. New enough when nominated. Long enough and neutrally written. I copyedited the article to improve quality and grammar. No copyvio detected. Verified this article's portion of the final hook, posted at the aforementioned nomination. This nomination should not be promoted until the main review concludes at
Template:Did you know nominations/Jaffna Stallions in 2020.
