Fails WP:NLIST as it says, "a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources". Störm  (talk)  22:07, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

 * Keep or Merge Have you never heard of WP:MULTIAFD or are you deliberately being disruptive? My keep reasons are on one of the other related AfDs that this should have been bundled with. Spike &#39;em (talk) 10:29, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
 * To expand the quote from the referenced WP:NLIST :One accepted reason why a list topic is considered notable is if it has been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources and There is no present consensus for how to assess the notability of more complex and cross-categorization lists (such as "Lists of X of Y") or what other criteria may justify the notability of stand-alone lists. There is clearly no consensus that the only notability criteria for a standalone list is that is has been discussed as a group. There is also the guidance in WP:NOTSTATS that : Where statistics are so lengthy as to impede the readability of the article, the statistics can be split into a separate article and summarized in the main article.

 * Merge. Following earlier AFDs here and here, there is nothing to warrant a separate article, per WP:SPLIT. Per nom, these articles do not stand on their own. wjematherplease leave a message... 12:20, 9 January 2021 (UTC)
 * But these earlier AFDs Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Mushfiqur Rahim or Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Upul Tharanga or Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Shakib Al Hasan resulted in being deleted. There is nothing to warrant a separate article, NOR is there any justifiable reason why such indiscriminate information needs to appear on the players' BLP articles.

 * The majority of !votes in those AFDs were based exclusively on a flawed and in fact non-existent minimum threshold, whereas the two more recent ones I linked above had input from a wider audience and so show a stronger consensus. International centuries are a significant and noted achievement and therefore listing them is not indiscriminate and does not violate NOTSTATS. wjematherplease leave a message... 11:45, 14 January 2021 (UTC)


 * Delete per other outcomes of 'List of international cricket centuries..' articles. WP:NOTSTATS. Ajf773 (talk) 08:17, 10 January 2021 (UTC)
 *  Delete Merge into main article, per similar discussions. Nigej (talk) 16:00, 20 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Why? The last three AfD's resulted in redirect, not merge. See Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Michael Atherton, Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Tom Latham, Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Dinesh Chandimal.
