Delete Almost identical situation to that of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/S. Perera (Kurunegala Youth Cricket Club cricketer), where the consensus was to delete - a solitary first class appearance, but no biographical details whatsoever; not even a first name. Didn't even bat. SageGreenRider ( talk) 20:03, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
- Comment - There are four more similar articles with AfD at the moment S._Perera_(Old_Cambrians_cricketer) {closed as delete), Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Manzoor (Delhi cricketer), Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Farook (Saurashtra cricketer), and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Narain (Madhya Pradesh cricketer). SageGreenRider ( talk) 20:20, 3 December 2015 (UTC)
- Keep. Per WP:CRIN and per my comments at Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/S._Perera_(Old_Cambrians_cricketer). This needs proper discussion at the relevant WP project, not in this piecemeal way. Johnlp ( talk) 09:43, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
- Keep per John's rationale. Lugnuts Dick Laurent is dead 11:18, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
- Keep per comments at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Narain (Madhya Pradesh cricketer). IgnorantArmies (talk) 03:56, 6 December 2015 (UTC)
- Keep. The article meets WP:NCRIC, which a closing admin was previously unaware of. IgnorantArmies makes a valid point above too. The guideline is simple and provides a level playing field for the inclusion of all cricketers who have played at the highest domestic level (or in some cases international between minor cricket playing nations). I also feel this would be best discussed at the project page. PinchHittingLeggy ( talk) 10:11, 6 December 2015 (UTC)
- Keep Passes
WP:NCRIC, and the only reason given for deletion is "it's like the other one that got deleted", which is bad logic, especially as I believe it was an awful decision to delete.

- Comment The reason for the deletion nominations was given at the outset as "a solitary first class appearance, but no biographical details whatsoever; not even a first name. Didn't even bat." Lack of notability is the issue, obviously. The presumption in NCRIC that hard-to-find reliable source have substantially reported on Mehta is implausible to say the least. There's even less to write about on the topic than the others. Didn't even bat! SageGreenRider ( talk) 14:35, 6 December 2015 (UTC)
- Keep. Has played in a major match and so meets WP:NCRIC. Jack | talk page 10:03, 7 December 2015 (UTC)
