 *  Keep Delete - the Cricinfo profile is misleading - it makes it seem like he is yet to make his FC debut - but according to Cricket Archive, he has played 7 FC matches. StAnselm (talk) 09:42, 17 June 2016 (UTC)
 * there's some confusion around which individual this is. The scorecard from Cricket Archive linked to his debut is here. However, Cricinfo has this scorecard linking to another person with the same name. Also see the note I posted at the foot of GreenCricket's talkpage. Any help on identifying the correct individual and their notability will be most welcome! Thanks.  Lugnuts  Dick Laurent is dead 10:14, 17 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Here's what I got from the PCB: this is the player born in 1996 (on 4 Jan, contrary to CA and CI), based on the U-19 record. This is the player, born in 1987, whose matches CA has attributed to the younger player. Here is his CA profile. The older player is a batsman and the younger a bowler, so it definitely looks like a mistake on CA's part. &mdash;Raven42 (talk) 00:02, 18 June 2016 (UTC)
 * OK, I agree that it was a mistake on CA's part. It does not look like the younger player has played any FC matches. I have changed my !vote accordingly. StAnselm (talk) 00:09, 18 June 2016 (UTC)


 * Comment: This is a forum discussion on the same issue. It looks possible that there is this 20-year-old batsman who has burst onto the scene and is averaging 50 in FC cricket, but in the absence of conclusive proof we should delete this article. StAnselm (talk) 00:15, 18 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete per the above. Nice detective work all round.  Lugnuts  Dick Laurent is dead 09:27, 19 June 2016 (UTC)
