Angela Pascoe

Can someone confirm or deny that Vettori is dating one Angela Pascoe? I have no knowledge either way, but I was suspicious because I failed to find any confirmation on Google. Stephen Turner (Talk) 10:38, 21 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I removed this. I can't confirm it on Google, and other edits by the same IP address on the same day look suspicious. Stephen Turner (Talk) 18:42, 15 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The grammar on this page is diabolical.

subjective and incorrect description of bowling

IN the first paragraph, the comment "known for his flight and guile rather than prodigious turn or pinpoint accuracy" is not based on any reference. While most of that sentence is true, the last, which implies Vettori is not pinpoint accurate, is not. Vettori is one of the most accurate spin bowlers to have ever played the game.

IPL Squad

He is no longer a member of Delhi Daredevils squad, hence the template had to be removed. --Abhinav619 (talk) 15:38, 3 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Spectacles

He is one of only 3 cricketers to have played cricket wearing spectacles in the modern era is an incorrect claim. Plenty of others have played, apart from the 3 named - Anil Kumble and Clive Lloyd are 2 immediate examples. I can think of a couple more whose names I cannot immediately recall. This line must be removed - more so because it adds very little value to this article. 92.98.0.97 (talk) 21:05, 22 April 2014 (UTC)Pushan[reply]
