Following this discussion at the Cricket Project, I've come to the conclusion that all of these events, created by the same user, simply do no exist. His log of edits shows similar articles that have already been deleted and this article is currently being proded for deletion too. I've raised this on their talkpage, but have had no response. There is nothing on Cricinfo (the main source for all cricket articles), so at best they fail WP:V and at worst are simply hoaxes. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 13:38, 26 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

    • Delete all Agree that it is too soon for individual tournament pages. The content that's there is probably accurate (definitely not a hoax), but the lack of verifiability is a problem; If we had ICC citations that these tournaments will take place in the years listed, I'd say redirect to the 2012–18 ICC World Cricket League page until the tournaments are fixtured; but as we don't have even that, I'd say delete entirely for the moment. There should be no prejudice against undeleting/recreating these articles once the match fixtures are released for the tournaments. Aspirex (talk) 02:23, 1 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]
