This is not a first-class cricket tournament and lacks notability. A PROD has been removed. BoJó | talk UTC 15:29, 20 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Changed vote. I agree with suggestions below per WP:ATD and I also recommend merge into Association of Indian Universities. BoJó | talk UTC 14:53, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Weak delete While the tournament doesn't have any official status, there is coverage of the tournament itself, although I'm not 100% sure there's enough to pass GNG. The article certainly needs to be improved though whatever the outcome. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 18:53, 21 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Keep I do think there is enough coverage to pass WP:GNG. The cricinfo article and a few articles on Times of India here, here, and here came up pretty quickly in a google search (showing significant coverage in secondary sources), and the sources seem to indicate that the trophy had more prominence in the pre-internet era so there's a good chance of further sources which wouldn't show up in a search engine.

Merge to Association of Indian Universities, per WP:ATD. Fails criteria for a standalone article as coverage in available independent reliable sources does not sufficiently extend beyond routine sports reporting, and so there is insufficient content to write a full article (WP:WHYN). However, there is a suitable broader article in which the subject can easily be accommodated with a section there, so that is a better course of action than deletion. _wjemather^{please leave a message...} 12:24, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Association of Indian Universities. The tournament itself doesn't look to pass WP:GNG, which isn't surprising as it's not a first-class/List A tournament, and so doesn't receive as much coverage. But merging 2-3 sentences is a valid WP:ATD, not least because the Association of Indian Universities would benefit from the improvement. Joseph2302 (talk) 13:14, 27 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
