Statistical Discrepancies and Alterations

Current Statistical Discrepancies

Below is a list of numerical discrepancies between my database and other sources (notably Wisden and CricInfo). Due to the possibility of typographical error in either of these comparative sources, I have yet to concede all of them as errors on my behalf. This page will also list errata and changes to existing data as time goes by. If you believe you have uncovered any glitches, then please notify me (I have a mail link on my main page) and I'll be sure to look into it. 


 Australia

GD McGrath      Discrepancy of 3 ODI runs.
                HowzStat has 8388, CricInfo has 8391

                StatsGuru states 16


 Sri Lanka



(10-Apr-08)
ST Jayasuriya   Discrepancy of 18 Test deliveries
	        CI states 8188, HowzStat 8170

(10-Apr-08)
WPUJC Vaas      Discrepancy of 1 ODI run conceded
	        CricInfo states 10684, HowzStat 10685


 West Indies 


R Dhanraj	Bowled 1 Test delivery too few.
	        CricInfo states 1087, I have 1086.

GC Grant	Played one Test innings too many (and 1 not out innings)
		It is likely that I have implied GC Grant batted
		in the second innings of the First Test against
		England in 1934/35, where he came in at No. 8
		and scored 0 not out. This could differ from what 
		Wisden has listed.

BP Patterson	Conceded 1 Test run too few.
		CricInfo states 2875, I have 2874.


Zimbabwe


EA Brandes      Bowled 1 Test maiden too few
                CricInfo states 63, I have 62 (as at May 7, 1997)
