Middle name

[edit ]

The box says his middle name is David but the text says it's Peter. STeamTraen (talk) 09:56, 6 January 2020 (UTC) [reply ]

Well spotted. I've corrected it. JH (talk page) 16:25, 6 January 2020 (UTC) [reply ]

Scores

[edit ]

As of the second test match in South Africa (2020), Dom Sibley's highest test score is 133* (Not out). In the box, the star to represent 'not out' is missing.

Thanks for pointing that out. This is one of the reasons why it is normal to not update infobox stats during a match - errors, omissions or duplications frequently occur. For example, some of his Test match stats had been updated, including some Original Research calculating his batting average, and some hadn't and no one had even thought about his first-class stats.

I've reverted the stats to the version in the cited source. When the match is over someone will update them once CricInfo update their stats - usually relatively quickly after the end of the match. Thanks again. Blue Square Thing (talk) 12:42, 7 January 2020 (UTC) [reply ]

Now done and up to date - and the average, which had been calculated incorrectly by whoever did the original research, is now accurate as well. Good things come to those who wait or something like that. Blue Square Thing (talk) 19:50, 7 January 2020 (UTC) [reply ]
