Hoax, no one of this name is listed on cricket sources (Cricinfo and CricketArchive) which have databases of every first-class/List A player. PROD was contested. Jpeeling (talk) 08:56, 6 August 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete, preferably speedy as G3. The only Anirudh Prabhakar born in Chennai that I was able to get any info about is a chess player. And no one from Kenya. - SpacemanSpiff Calvin&#8225;Hobbes 17:30, 6 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete: article is apparently about a 15 yo Kenyan cricketer who has played first class cricket, as well as List A and Twenty20 internationals (according to the stats provided). If this were true he would have sources talking about him, especially on Cricket Archive and Cricinfo which are two reliable (in my opinion) sources when it comes to cricketers. The only reference/link provided is to Cricket Archive but it goes to a different player (Peter Ongondo). Even if this person exists, the article is clearly making a number of false claims and as I don't believe that cricketers who play for their countries at junior level are notable per Wiki guidelines, the article should be deleted per the nominator's comment. — AustralianRupert (talk) 04:30, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - even if he's real, this 14-year-old fails WP:ATHLETE. JohnCD (talk) 12:55, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
