Kabul Province cricket team

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Procedural nomination: previously converted to a redirect pointing at Kabul Eagles, first by on general notability grounds, then by  on the basis that no evidence has been provided that this is even a different team from the Eagles. Both times, this decision was reverted by, who did not provide additional sources to address the other editors' concerns. Absent any secondary source coverage of the team itself, retargeting to Cricket in Afghanistan seems most appropriate, as this page will at least provide the reader with some information about teams in Kabul Province. signed,Rosguill talk 17:54, 30 June 2023 (UTC)

 * They're listed as different teams on CricketArchive. Not even linked. Certainly from a quick look at last season's matches, there appears to be very little overlap at all in terms of players. I don't **think** they're the same side. Kabul only competed in one season (2019) in top-level cricket - although they still compete in the Provincial Grade I competition.

 * Comment Even if they are different teams, I doubt that the article meets WP:GNG. Anything I can find online seems to be mainly statistics. JML1148 ( talk &#124; contribs ) 04:17, 1 July 2023 (UTC)

Relisting comment: Relisting. While I appreciate learning more about cricket in Afghanistan, I'd like to know whether some of the editors commenting here support a redirection (which I assume is what is meant by "retargeting"). And, if you don't support either a Redirect or perhaps you don't agree with the redirect target article that is suggested, what do you think should happen here? Thank you. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 22:07, 7 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment Regional teams are representing Geographical/Administrative of Afghanistan with each region comprising of a bunch of provinces . Kabul Province was promoted to act as its own regional team and that stopped after 1.5 seasons. They now play Provincial tournament only. Shpageeza is a franchise tournament with private owners and drafts to sign players like IPL. I am not saying that Kabul Province/Region team should have a page for its own. But Kabul Eagles have nothing to be linked with Kabul Province/Region team. So do the other 5 Shpageeza franchises which have a shared geographical name with the Regional teams.

 * Retarget to Cricket in Afghanistan Doesn't seem notable enough in itself for an individual page, however the current target is an incorrect one. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 09:29, 2 July 2023 (UTC)
 * These are not only different teams but they play different games. Kabul Province is a long form and 50-over side, but Kabul Eagles play 20-20. Whatever happens to this article it should not redirect to Kabul Eagles. Phil Bridger (talk) 21:20, 3 July 2023 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * The retarget suggested above sounds reasonable to me in the circumstances Blue Square Thing (talk) 07:21, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
