This match is a strangly complicated case. A wicket fell in the 2nd innings, and the new batter (Pooran) started to come to the crease. Before he made it the umpires called the game off due to rain. In that case does the Pooran count as a batter? He had started to come in, but wasn't involved in any deliveries. CricketArchive doesn't regard him as a batter, and the ICC do. Cricinfo is special, in that the scorecard on their website includes him, while the JSON used to power their site (and which I process to get the data) doesn't. Overall, I'm not pinning this as an error on anyone, although it probably is one.
