Cricket results, fixture numbers and squad details can change quickly. This policy explains how we distinguish a confirmed factual mistake from a later development or a disagreement about analysis.
What is a correction?
A correction addresses a material mistake in a published claim, such as a wrong score, player name, date, venue, direct quotation or attribution. A fixture moved by an organiser after a correct report was published is usually an update, not evidence that the original report was false. A different opinion about a prediction is not automatically a factual correction.
Reporting an error
There is not yet a monitored correction inbox or submission form. Once a verified channel exists, a useful report would identify the exact page URL, the statement or data point in question, the proposed correction and a reliable supporting source. Do not put personal information into the public site-search box to report an error.
Reviewing the evidence
We compare a report with the article’s linked source, competition records and other attributable evidence where practical. We may need clarification if a record has changed or sources conflict. Submitting a report does not itself establish that a published statement is wrong.
Making a change
For a confirmed material error, the aim is to correct the statement, preserve useful context and add a visible note explaining a significant change. An update date should reflect material revision, not an attempt to make an unchanged article seem recent. Minor punctuation or layout changes may be made without a public correction notice.
Significant corrections and log
A significant correction should be clear enough that a reader can understand what changed and why. A site-wide public correction log has not yet been established; we do not present an empty list as proof there have never been earlier corrections. If a reliable log is implemented, its entries should identify the page, date, issue and change without exposing private reports.
