[edit] Name

The cricinfo has no middle name. In "A History of Indian cricket" by Mihir Bose, we have V. C. Sehwag. Thanks, Blnguyen | rant-line 06:41, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

When I faced the same problem with people like Yashpal Baburam Sharma and Chetan Jagatram Sharma, I conducted some offline enquires. The explanation that I got was that people from the West usually use their father's first name as the middle name; people from the North often don't use any middle name. The form that BCCI requires the players to fill has a column called "middle name or father's name". So the father's name that middlenameless Northies fill here sometimes get interepreted as their middle name.

Do you have the second edition of A History of Indian Cricket ? I have only the first edition and would be contacting you often to crosscheck things with the second edition :-) Tintin (talk) 06:51, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

I checked the biography of Sehwag. In the 'facts and figures' section, his name is given as plain 'Virendra Sehwag'. Do you know what the 'C' stands for ? His father's name was Krishan Sehwag ? Tintin (talk) 13:50, 24 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vice Captaincy

Shouldn't the opening paragraph also mention that he has now been removed from the vice-captaincy of the Test team? And should there be a Records or Career Highlights section like other players? --Shaktimaan 01:04, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
