Biography which fails to meet WP:GNG, WP:ATHLETE or WP:NCRIC. Very limited biographical information from CricketArchive or Haygarth - essentially we know a surname existed on two scorecards and nothing else - it's not even certain that the same person played in both matches. Neither match was considered to be a first-class cricket match, despite the article's claims, and neither were played by a significant team - the MCC side was actually a Hertfordshire and MCC side; in the other match Page played for Hertfordshire; both matches were played against Hornchurch. Both matches were played over 2-days and so have no hope of ever being retrospectively classified as first-class. If there were more biographical information then it might be possible to argue that Page might be a suitable topic for a biographical article. The previous AfD, from 2008, relied upon the two matches having been first-class "aka major cricket matches". There is no evidence to suggest that either match has ever been classified as such. PROD quite rightly declined by due to the previous AfD. Blue Square Thing (talk) 16:15, 18 December 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete per the concerns raised by BST about the matches not being first-class, therefore failing WP:NCRIC.  Lugnuts  Fire Walk with Me 13:09, 19 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete might be worth including in a list of people who made 1st class cricket match appearances in 1791, but not worth having a stand alone article on.John Pack Lambert (talk) 07:30, 22 December 2018 (UTC)
