Belarus national cricket team

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

There are several non-member nations of the International Cricket Council who we have articles for, but it seems in some cases a national team has never existed, or has once existed in some form but no longer does exist. Either way, there is little in the way of coverage of these teams in multiple reliable sources. These teams fail WP:CRIN, WP:CLUB and more importantly WP:GNG. In the case of Belarus, Kiribati, Ecudaor and Tuvalu (Tuvalu isn't recorded since 1979), it seems national teams existed once in some limited capacity, though for Belarus and Kiribati there doesn't seem to be any coverage, no matter how trivial. Ethiopia has never had a national cricket team. Howzat?Out!Out!Out! (talk) 16:44, 11 August 2014 (UTC)

I am also nominating the following related pages (mentioned above):

 * Delete all none of these teams have been recognised by the International Cricket Councilso any games they do actually play would have no official status. LibStar (talk) 03:38, 19 August 2014 (UTC)


 * Delete all it would seem these all fail both WP:CRIN and WP:GNG. Unless someone can point to another criteria they meet somewhere, I can't see how any of these would be considered notable.  St ★ lwart 1 1 1 00:28, 20 August 2014 (UTC)
