List of fastest to reach multiples of 1000 runs in ODI cricket

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Delete. A list like this will not be maintained long-term and is already out of date. Fails WP:NOTSTATS, WP:NOTMIRROR and WP:NOTDIRECTORY. Adds no value at all and if we had a WP:SOWHAT? it would fail that too. Waste of space. Jack | talk page 14:12, 30 October 2016 (UTC)

I am also nominating the following related pages because they are the same except for the different forms of cricket:

 * Keep all important milestones are often kept in various sports on wikipedia such as 3,000 hit club, List of men's association football players with 500 or more goals, List of NHL players with 1000 assists etc. It seems rough to suggest that cricket shouldn't also be able to mark milestones, and the above rationale for delete is not a good policy reason as per WP:OUTDATED.

 * Delete all per WP:INDISCRIMINATE. These aren't particularly important milestones, and Wikipedia doesn't need to be a mirror of Cricinfo and CricketArchive.  IgnorantArmies  (talk)  07:02, 31 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete per WP:NOSTATS.  Lugnuts  Precious bodily fluids 09:07, 31 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete on balance - there needs to be a line drawn somewhere regarding purely statistical articles. Per the policies cited by others I don't think this reaches the line. Blue Square Thing (talk) 21:02, 1 November 2016 (UTC)
 * None of these are particularly celebrated achievements in cricket. Leave it to the specialist sites, not an encyclopedia. Delete. --Dweller (talk) Become old fashioned! 14:31, 3 November 2016 (UTC)
