How we verified this(13)

one provider on every surface: both scorecards come from the two clubs' own match centres for game 233562, which agree line for line on the Glamorgan innings, and no feed or broadcaster figure is mixed in
Glamorgan's innings is closed and safe to report: 69 all out in 26.3 overs, the figure carried by both clubs' match centres
the Warwickshire score is a live, moving figure and appears once, stamped 16:57 BST with play going on, never as a close-of-play or final score
no close-of-play score is given because play had not closed when this was filed
no record claim: no primary states whether 69 is a season, ground or all-time low for Glamorgan, so the piece makes no comparison of that kind
no quote: no club statement, captain or coach comment on the innings had been published, because play was still live
no cause stated for the collapse: neither club's match centre offers one, so the piece offers none
table position, points and the three remaining matches given as the club states each figure before this game, with no inference about relegation
Manav Suthar's 0.3 overs are carried by both clubs' cards and by BBC Sport's scorecard for game 233562, and are consistent with the other four bowlers' 26 overs against a total closed at 26.3
maiden overs left out: neither club's scorecard shows a maiden column
Warwickshire's reply is given once, stamped with the time it was read from Glamorgan's own match centre, and framed as where the match stood at that moment: play had not closed and no close of play score exists
no record claim: no primary states whether 69 is a season, ground or all-time low for Glamorgan, so the piece makes no comparison at all
four Glamorgan batters made nought, and the piece says four: Jack Hope-Bell, Kiran Carlson, Timm van der Gugten and Mir Hamza
