Sorry, but none of the hooks are accurate because they make you think you're clicking on
Kandy Tuskers, not an article about their 2020 season. Please write a different hook that clues the reader to the topic. Thanks,

@
CreativeNorth: as I said above, these new hooks also make it seem like you're clicking on the team article, not the article about the 2020 season. I took a look at the article and gave it a complete copyedit. Please check to see that I understood what you were talking about (I know nothing about cricket) and then I will suggest an alt. Thanks,

Yoninah, I've created 3 new ALTs (6, 7 and 8). What have you to say about them? Moreover, the most runs wasn't made by Dambulla's cricketer but by Galle' batsman. Thank you.

Empire AS: Thanks for this, I've edited the hooks a bit to make them more hooky. @
Yoninah: What do you think?
@
CreativeNorth:@
Empire AS: the new hooks are better. But what is a total? What is a target? You're writing for an international audience who may not know what you're referring to.
Regarding my request for sourcing on the Squads and Administrative charts, you'll see I removed them from the article because you have the squad members at least in the template below. Perhaps add the administrative members there and you won't need sourcing.

I went over the article again in advance of suggesting a multi-article hook and it looks all right. The number of charts in this and the other articles, though, seems to violate
WP:CITEKILL.
