The result was redirect to Belgium national cricket team. There's a strong consensus that this individual is not sufficiently notable, either via the specific WP:NCRICKET guideline or the general guideline's requirement for significant coverage. However, a very strong point is made that he's a plausible search term as the head coach for a national team, and he is mentioned on that page in a section that could be expanded. Given the harmless, stubby nature of the current article, it appears that redirecting with history intact satisfies both requirements. Information can be selectively merged at editors' discretion. ~ mazca  talk 13:27, 23 January 2020 (UTC)

Non-notable cricketer, either as coach or player. No SIGCOV to warrant inclusion per GNG (coverage merely constitutes mentions of "the team included" type). Therefore fails both general notability and WP:CRIN. PK650 (talk) 02:54, 16 January 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete. Fails WP:NCRICKET. WWGB (talk) 04:52, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Merge and redirect I could find nothing that indicated notability in the subject's own right.  As the head coach for a national team, even though the team is a minnow, this is a likely search term.  I suggest trim, merge, and redirect to Belgium national cricket team.

 * Merge and redirect - this is the best option in this case. The merge should be very selective, but information should go to both the Belgium national cricket team and possibly also to Qatar T10 League. The redirect should go to Belgium in the first instance but needs monitoring. I'm not convinced that failing NCRICKET is really a valid reason to delete in itself if there is wider notability and am more convinced by 's argument above.
