Delete - non-notable cricketer per WP:CRIC. Poorly referenced and also fails WP:ATH. AssociateAffiliate (talk) 17:58, 17 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Strong delete and should have been speedy deleted but for technicalities. The article is a hoax per my message on the talk page. The subject of the article does not exist. In any case, AA is correct that it does not meet WP:CRIN or WP:ATH. ----Jack | ^{talk page} 19:38, 17 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, the sources within don't say much in terms of GNG either, but this definitely doesn't pass WP:ATH/WP:CRIN. —SpacemanSpiff 18:20, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- But it isn't a hoax though. He's not on CA because he hasn't played First Class Cricket, he's only played within the Punjab Cricket Association's league(s). —SpacemanSpiff 18:25, 18 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. The only remotely reliable reference on that page says he's playing in an under-14 competition. —Raven42 (talk) 04:02, 20 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]
