 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete I thought we had gotten rid of these articles on cricket players who are so little known no one even knows their first names, I guess I was wrong.John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:30, 4 February 2021 (UTC)

 * Comment I know nothing about cricket, so this is not a vote to keep or delete. However, "no one even knows their first names" is most likely a culturally misleading statement. The subject is Sri Lankan, and both Tamil and Sinhalese Sri Lankans frequently use initials to represent patronymic or given names, similar to how it is done in in Tamil Nadu.

 * Delete. Trivial pass of NCRIC, but the presumption of notability afforded is extremely weak for such cricketers, and there is no evidence that WP:SIGCOV exists. Only available sources are wide-ranging databases, which may be enough for inclusion in a list (no suitable one exists to merge/redirect to), but it is not good enough for a standalone article. wjematherplease leave a message... 15:59, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
