- Keep Notable cricketer, played in first-class matches per WP:NCRIC. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 09:10, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to Faisalabad cricket team Has played 2 FC matches, but I couldn't find any real coverage. Sources though may exists offline or in Pakistani sources though. Using a similar precedent to that used by WP:FOOTY where a player with one or a few matches, but no coverage, are redirected/deleted, and a suitable WP:ATD exists here.

- Keep as ever with this nominator, there is no reason given for the deletion; no details of which sources have been checked (or even in this instance whether sources have been checked); no information regarding any relation to WP:NCRIC. Also no reflection of the approach set out in WP:ATHLETE that there should be longer periods provided to find relevant sources where those sources are likely to be in non-English languages, as in this instance. "Non-notable cricketer" is nothing more than an assertion and reflection of the nominator's (conscious or unconscious) bias, which has no place in an AfD proposal.

- Delete As the two obstructionists have been told over and over again, the basic standard for inclusion in Wikipedia is GNG. This article does not meet that and needs to be deleted. This article has existed over three years. That was plenty of time to find adequate sources, so we should reject such pleading for extra time. Wikipedia needs to stop being cricketpedia.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:53, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete or weak redirect to List of Faisalabad cricketers. No significant coverage so fails WP:GNG. This trumps the trivial pass of WP:NCRIC, and very weak presumption of notability, gained by virtue of playing two matches for the weakest team in the competition. One innings of substance does not inspire any confidence that significant coverage exists. Was picked up by Central Punjab to play second XI cricket, so there is a chance he'll reappear to generate coverage and should that happen, the article can be recreated and retitled. Redirect is an accepted ATD. wjematherplease leave a message... 15:28, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete: Nothing found in my search, not even single article and as a sources only ESPN scorecard is there so strong reliable sources not found & not enough coverage to pass general notability guidelines. TheDreamBoat (talk) 05:28, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Fails WP:SIGCOV. Keep votes need to provide sources with substantial coverage.4meter4 (talk) 22:07, 27 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
