Non-notable cricketer, nothing notable about them in searches. Fails WP:GNG. Störm (talk) 14:29, 19 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Cheshire County Cricket Club Has played 1 List-A game, but I couldn't find any coverage. Sources may exist locally in the Cheshire area due to the one appearance and few minor county games he played, but I haven't been able to locate any. Using a similar precedent to that used by WP:FOOTY where a player with one or a few players, but no coverage, is redirected/deleted. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 18:02, 19 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Decent club cricketer, but that's all. No significant coverage, only the usual wide ranging databases built on scorecard data and the odd passing mention in local club cricket reports, so fails WP:GNG. The most significant coverage seems to relate to a post-match altercation with Steve O'Shaughnessy that resulted in a night in the cells [1]. The lack of SIGCOV trumps the extremely trivial pass (arguable fail) of NCRIC, which has proven to be a very poor guide to passing GNG for cricketer such as this, who have only played for minor counties (which of course is not the highest level of domestic cricket). _wjemather^{please leave a message...} 16:56, 20 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
