The result was redirect to List of Essex Cricket Board List A players. To be honest, recent outcomes of AfD about cricketers depend on the participants too much. (non-admin closure) ~ Aseleste (t, e | c, l) 04:35, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to List of Essex Cricket Board List A players Has played 1 List A match, but there's only really coverage of his club career and nothing significant to pass GNG. Using a similar precedent to that used by WP:FOOTY where a player with one or a few matches, but no coverage, is redirected/deleted, and there is a suitable WP:ATD here. Nominator perhaps should have been BOLD and redirected. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 11:06, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete or weak redirect to List of Essex Cricket Board List A players. No significant coverage, aside from the usual scorecard databases it's mostly passing mentions in routine club cricket reports, so fails WP:GNG. This trumps the extremely trivial (and arguable fail) of WP:NCRIC, which has proven a very unreliable indicator of suitability for standalone articles. Played one List A match for a cricket board XI – that is plainly not the highest standard of domestic cricket, irrespective of the opponents and the competition's status. _wjemather^{please leave a message...} 13:07, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
