  • Keep meets WP:NCRIC. Ten days ago, I reminded this editor about the closing comments of a past RfC "As with the RfC on secondary school notability, this should not be an invitation to "flood AfD with indiscriminate or excessive nominations". This is one of approx. a dozen back-to-back nominations made today within a 30 minute window, suggesting no attempt at WP:BEFORE was used pre-nomination.

  • Delete totally fails GNG which is the minimum standard for all articles. Any article that fails to meet GNG should be deleted. We need a flood of nominations like this when Wikipedia is drowning in junk like this article is.John Pack Lambert (talk) 19:39, 19 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete After conducting a WP:BEFORE the subject fails the basic criteria for inclusion found in WP:N. Multiple SNG criteria may be met but that only presumes notability and is used for article creation. Such presumptions may be rebutted and brought before AfD which we are then instructed to use our notability guideline for retention or deletion. Deletion is the only ruling that can be given based on the sources. --ARoseWolf (Talk) 20:29, 19 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete. Subject trivially passes NCRIC, which by consensus only provides an extremely weak presumption of notability that is very unreliable for cricketers such as these (recent NSPORT discussion here), but fails all meaningful guidelines including GNG and SPORTCRIT. No sources beyond wide ranging databases; no suitable list to merge into. wjematherplease leave a message... 12:09, 22 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per the growing, indeed fully grown, consensus that sportspersons who only played 1 game of their sport do not satisfy Wikipedia guidelines, if not that game was especially noteworthy. Geschichte (talk) 08:57, 23 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete in the absence of a suitable list or redirect to. Trivial pass of NCRIC but failure of GNG and no suggestion that there is much of a chance of finding more in depth sources given his short career. Lack of a linked article on Urdu language Wikipedia further suggests that sources will be difficult to find. Blue Square Thing (talk) 12:05, 23 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
