Non-notable cricketer, fails WP:NCRIC as per Cricinfo profile. No significant coverage in reliable sources, fails WP:SIGCOV. — A.A Prinon Leave a dialogue 11:31, 14 June 2021 (UTC)

- Delete County cricket scorers don't tend to be notable enough for their own articles. Middlesex's scorers are listed on the Middlesex page, however on another recent discussion it seems that deletion is more appropriate than redirect, as its excessive detail for them to be listed on the page.

- Delete. Wholly non-notable in the context of a global encyclopaedia; I accept now that I probably was wrong even to propose a redirect in that other case. RobinCarmody (talk) 22:01, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
- Delete. Per nom. StickyWicket (talk) 22:46, 14 June 2021 (UTC)
- Delete assuming that Middlesex's scorers are removed from that page, otherwise redirect to Middlesex County Cricket Club#Club scorers. Either way, no need for an article on someone who will never pass WP:GNG. Joseph2302 (talk) 08:17, 15 June 2021 (UTC)
- Delete County cricket scorers aren't notable as a result of having that job themselves. Blue Square Thing (talk) 11:59, 15 June 2021 (UTC)
- Delete - I would fully concur with the arguments made above. Dunarc (talk) 22:41, 19 June 2021 (UTC)
