Has anyone else noticed it?

Has anyone else noticed that Mark Nicolas keeps calling Cameron White, Craig White?

IIRC Tony Grieg has done it in this series.

As has Bill Lawry, which was a shock.

Add Bumble to that list, too... and ITB.

I want to know who this Jay Kaborum bloke is. He's scoring a lot of runs for us, hitting a lot of sixes, but I have no idea who he is.

It's evidently amazingly difficult to say Jacob........... Oram.

oh ok thanks for clearing that up

That's OK Google's a great tool if you're ever unsure of something

Quite a few people used to call Robin Singh as Robin Smith by mistake.

Venkatraghavan was of course impossible to pronounce for some commentators and he got the nick named rent-a-wagon.

Or Venkat...

Quite honestly, I only ever recall hearing one person in the 30 or 40 Tests I saw him Umpire, call him Venkatraghavan, that being the aforementioned MCJ...

CricInfo and CricketArchive, too...

Not to mention this 'ere place...

Worse than this, CricInfo - supposedly the statistics keeper for most major cricket teams - is listing Darren Bravo as his brother Dwayne. They've changed all the records of Dwayne Bravo from DJJ Bravo (as is correct) to DJ Bravo and appear to be attributing Darren J. Bravo's stats to Dwayne's record. They listen Dwayne as having played for the West Indies in India at the same time as he was in Trinidad, representing T&T. How embarrassing for them.

I've emailed them twice about this since I noticed it, but they have not changed it yet.

Either that or Mr Bravo has mastered the ability to clone himself and/or travel through time so quickly he can appear to be two places at once.

Give this guy the Nobel Prize!
