Most career wicketkeeping dismissals PJL Dujon and JM Parks both took 2 catches as fielders, which are counted in this table.
Youngest Test debutants Due to automatic generation, the following two ages are incorrect by one day:

Ata-ur-Rehman (P) Did not make official debut until 2nd scheduled day, due to rain on the first.
Hanif Mohammed (P) Debuted on a leap year, with the month of February falling between his date of birth and date of the match.

The second error will be straightforward to rectify, but there will a delay in solving the first problem - efforts are currently underway to create a complete Close of Play scores archive.

Oldest Test Players Since I currently have access to only the date of the first day's play, this is used to calculate the age of the oldest players. The ranking of the players is still the same as in Wisden though.
Youngest Players to score 50, 100, etc Players who initially made a score in a higher bracket beforehand (e.g. scoring a maiden 200 before a maiden century) are not included in the table showing the list of lower scores.
