In "Buoyant bowler" (Sports, Parsiana, December 21, 2018) a statement was erroneously attributed to umpires coach Bomi Jamula that erstwhile cricketer Vijay Merchant insisted on a helmet and other good quality protective gear. As pointed out by sportswriter Gulu Ezekiel, "Helmets came into cricket in the late 1970s, Merchant retired in the early 1950s."
In "Metro stay lifted" (Events and Personalities, Parsiana, December 21, 2018) the Supreme Court order of December 10, 2018 was erroneously carried as December 20, 2019, as pointed out by Parsiana reader Minoo Patel.
Parsiana regrets the errors....
