Question
editWhy isn't the amount of runs cxvbcvbcvb each wicket keeper displayed as these days wicket keepers are selected on the grounds of keeping and batting
Why was a hyphen inserted into Wicketkeeper? Goalkeeper indicates wiki style to not use the hyphen. Moved a page a few days ago and got bollocked because the edit history was reputedly lost.. Now this page has been edited again, how do I move it back to the Wicketkeeper page? Moriori 01:21, Mar 28, 2004 (UTC)
The hyphen is correct - take a look at the Lord's page http://www.lords.org/cricket/lw_0000000066.asp

Correction required - P Sen was not the designated wicketkeeper in the game where he took a hat-trick - G Chakraboty was - although Sen was the more usual Bengali keeper (source CricketArchive scorecards) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Oleg mcnoleg (talk • contribs) 08:10, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

Attention needed
editConsidering that this is a high importance topic under the WP:CRIC banner, the article is in a very poor state and is particularly afflicted by "recentism". Have flagged it for attention in the assessment template above. ---BlackJack | talk page 08:01, 4 November 2008 (UTC)
Question: When an over is completed, and the bowler changes, and the bowling is effected from the other end of the pitch, the same wicket-keeper re-positions himself at the other side of the pitch? (I am an Yank learning this great game.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.183.22.254 (talk) 21:24, 25 July 2013 (UTC)
Self evidently wicketkeepers initially squat
