English has not appeared in a List A match as the article claims, however, I do not think this is an error on the part of the original article creator. I think the Ireland Wolves v Scotland A matches initially had List A status, but this status has since been rescinded, likely by Cricket Ireland, which as an ICC Full Member, has the power to give/remove status to matches.

Delete Per nom. Looks to have featured in a delisted fixture. Not seeing a suitable redirect here either. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 10:15, 26 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete A team matches involving full members were supposed to have List A status. But this match is not listed as a "List A" match. So, player is non-notable because of not playing in any match having official status. RoboCric (talk) 12:49, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete doesn't look to meet the criteria of WP:GNG, which is the actual basis for keeping/deleting articles, not whether fixtures are or aren't List A (which doesn't demonstrate notability). Joseph2302 (talk) 16:09, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - As above, I do not think there is any evidence of the subject having the sort of notability that would be needed for them to have a wikipedia article.Dunarc (talk) 22:59, 31 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Subject doesn’t meet WP:NATHLETE or WP:GNG. Shawn Teller (he/her) (talk) 02:18, 1 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
