Problem with a new format for numbered list after the 10th item

Why is my new format for a numbered list has an indent when there's more than
9 items?

Such as:

....
[8]. blabla
[9]. blabla
[10]. blabalba
[11]. dasfjdal
....

How do I fix that?
 
It is related to the size of the first default tab stop. Define the required
tab stops in your numbered list style rather than rely on the defaults.

Sorry, the formatting of the first post changed. It didn't kept the extra
indent after the values that are bigger than 10.

To visualize the problem, you need to add at least 5 spaces after each
numbers that are bigger than 9.

eg :
....
[8]. blabla
[9]. blabla
[10]. ____blabalba
[11]. ____dasfjdal
....

Where "_" are spaces.

As Graham explained, the problem is because the tab stop for where the
text begins is too far to the left for a two-digit introductory
number. Use any of the many ways of changing tab stops in the Style
you are using.
