Changed

>> during his captaincy the side had a run of 26 matches without defeat,

to 27. Though Richards was the captain in one of these 27 matches (v England, Leeds 1980), IMHO, 27 is more appropriate.

Tintin.

Best to explain why 27 not 26 then. -- ALoan (Talk) 09:04, 21 Dec 2004 (UTC)

I apologise for the error. Port of Spain, 1983-84 was the match that Lloyd missed. He did miss Leeds '80, but it was outside the 27 tests.

[edit] Sir Clive?

The MLC tournament is named the "Sir Clive Lloyd Cup", but I can't find any reference to Clive actually having been knighted at any point... has he been? -dmmaus 00:49, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
