1,004 in 2003, 1,003 in 2004, and 1,323 in 2005
The 2003 and 2004 totals are reversed: Trescothick scored 1,003 Test runs in 2003 and 1,004 in 2004.
Full reasoning
The yearly Test batting records show that Marcus Trescothick made 1,003 runs in calendar year 2003 and 1,004 runs in 2004. The article has those two totals swapped, although the 2005 figure of 1,323 is consistent with the surrounding claim.

but his full One Day International debut came against Zimbabwe at The Oval on 9 July 2000, when he scored 79.
Trescothick's ODI debut against Zimbabwe at The Oval was on 8 July 2000, not 9 July 2000.
Full reasoning
ESPNcricinfo's full scorecard for England v Zimbabwe in the NatWest Series lists the match as "Jul 8 2000" and specifically marks it as "ODI debut Marcus Trescothick." The same scorecard shows Trescothick making 79 in that match. So the score and opponent are right, but the date in the article is off by one day.
