This article has been added to WP:PROD three times, first on 1 October 2018 by both David Biddulph and Harrias; then by me yesterday. GB fan has advised me that it must go to AFD as there has been a previous PROD. The 2018 PRODs said: "No evidence of WP:Notability" (David) and "Appears to be a regional tournament without significant notability. Definitely not first-class, as claimed" (Harrias). In my PROD, I said: "Local event of no wider importance. Fails WP:GNG". I think all the PROD comments are valid and that this article should go. The tournament could perhaps be mentioned in Bihar Cricket Association. Batagur baska (talk) 14:36, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

- The only stuff worth keeping is probably the first paragraph, which appears at least vaguely sourced. I doubt we need that paragraph as a stand alone article. This would probably be better off redirected to somewhere like Cricket in India I imagine Blue Square Thing (talk) 16:02, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
- I searched for Cricket in Bihar, only to find it is a disambiguation page! Batagur baska (talk) 21:40, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

- I had forgotten about this. I found this section in the BCA article and it had no introduction, so I have copied the first two sentences of the article to there. I suppose that might count as a merge and there is nothing else of any use so it's just a question of redirecting or deleting the article. Thank you, everyone.
