Non-notable cricketer, fails WP:GNG. Störm (talk) 07:12, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Clear notability fail. There's no information that source for his single important game is reliable in the first place. Delete. Macktheknifeau (talk) 08:03, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Keep passes WP:NCRIC having played in a first-class match. Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 08:35, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Presumption of notability is not the same as actual notability. Being included in the scorebook of a single cricket game does not automatically mean he as a person has multiple significant sources that confer notability. Macktheknifeau (talk) 08:59, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Sukkur cricket team Has played 1 FC match, but I couldn't find any coverage. Sources may exist offline or in Pakistani sources but I couldn't find any in a search. Using a similar precedent to that used by WP:FOOTY were a player with one or a few matches, but no coverage, is redirected/deleted, and there is a suitable WP:ATD here.

Delete. No significant coverage or reason to expect any exists so fails WP:GNG. This trumps any trivial meeting of NCRIC criteria, by virtue of playing one match in one of the 6 (six) first-class competitions held in Pakistan during the 1975/76 season. List of Sukkur cricketers would be an accepted ATD redirect target but this only exists as a redirect. _wjemather^{please leave a message...} 12:00, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete not even close to meeting GNG.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:33, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - GNG is clearly not met. No prejudice against a redirect to List of Sukkur cricketers at a later date if that article can be established. Spiderone^{(Talk to Spider)} 23:52, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
