The article is not suitable as it lacks the notability criteria. Probably A Cricket tours are not taken into consideration according to WikiProject Cricket Abishe (talk) 09:28, 24 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete it's an A-team cricket tour, and so not notable enough. Joseph2302 (talk) 10:17, 24 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Per the above. Also note that this user has created a few non-notable cricket articles for tours and competitions, simply because they exist. I've dropped a note on their talkpage a few days back to invite them to post at WT:CRIC first to seek clarification before they create anything else.

  • Keep. There are other articles about A-team tours because they include first-class and List A matches. I agree, however, that the quality of the article is terrible so perhaps it could be removed for that reason, but not for notability. WP:CRIN includes: "all clubs and teams taking part in senior cricket matches are automatically qualified under the conditions of WP:N and WP:ORG".

  • Delete. Well, the article about the A cricket tour can be proved as a notable one but the author of the article didn't provide the scorecards relevant to the List A and First Class cricket matches and instead of it, he provided scorecards relating to other International cricket tours, for example:- Australian cricket team in India in 2017-18. So I propose it for deletion. Abishe (talk) 16:25, 24 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Abishe. You cannot vote twice. At WT:CRIC you say your objection is based on incorrect scorecards being cited, which is not a reason to delete and, in any case, the errors have been corrected. Please specify where at CRIC does it say "A team tours are not taken into consideration" because they meet CRIN (see above) providing they play FC/LA matches. Thanks.

  • Keep This tour consists of First-class / List-A games, so on that basis it passes WP:CRIN, but it falls down on a lack of references, so may fail WP:V Spike 'em (talk) 08:03, 25 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I regret for my second nomination for deletion and I respect the words said by you all. I actually didn't try to delete this article when I just viewed at it, but only due to incorrect scorecards and citing no sources were the main factors for me to decide it for a deletion. As a member of WikiProject Cricket, I understand the fact that cricketers who play in List A, First Class cricket and T20 cricket are notable according to the guidelines and on the other hand, I am not quite sure that List A cricket tours are eligible for notability guidelines. If I had done wrong I apologise for it. Thanks. Abishe (talk) 09:15, 25 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • I am trying to improve this page. I will cite the correct scorecards and references related to this article. Thanks. Aditya tamhankar (talk) 18:15, 1October 2017 (UTC)

  • Delete not notable enough. this is just a cricket tour Samat lib (talk) 11:36, 2 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment Not sure if I need to !vote down here again, my view hasn't changed. There are multiple, independent online sources covering this tour (some of which are now linked in article to demonstrate WP:V) including indexes here and here
