Don't think this qualifies for any sports category, but don't want to be stepping out of line. Orange Mike | Talk 00:54, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. If it were true that that this player had played for Nottinghamshire then he would pass WP:ATHLETE#Cricket, but neither Cricinfo nor the Cricket Archive lists him, and their coverage of top level English players from recent decades is comprehensive.

Delete - I have done a number of searches for this player and they returned nothing. If it were the case that he were a first-class cricketer, he would be on Cricinfo or CricketArchive. I suspect this is a hoax. AssociateAffiliate (talk) 14:53, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - Out of interest (or lack of), also sounds like this person might be the one pretending to be Michael Lumb on Twitter! AssociateAffiliate (talk) 12:26, 5 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - As noted by others, no reference is found on Cricinfo or CricketArchive to this person playing major cricket, so article appears to be a hoax. RossRSmith (talk) 07:19, 6 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
