There have been multiple previous AfDs for A-team cricket tours, and they have all ended in delete (one, two, three, four), as these tours are not at the highest international level. The article creator has had multiple similar pages deleted, so while I'd like to WP:AGF, I think they're just ignoring the consensus here, which could be viewed as disurption or WP:IDHT.

- Delete as per nom. Fail to show WP:NCRIC and it is not an international level tour indespite of FC/LA games. Fade258 (talk) 08:08, 9 May 2022 (UTC)
- Hey Fade258, It may not be proper International tour but this article South Africa A cricket team in Zimbabwe in 2021–22 is not considered for deletion just because they are test nations. So, I request you not to do so as having wikipedia article provides some credibility to the tour which rarely happens in associate countries as compared to test nations.

- Rmudvari, Yes I know that as I don't say that your mentioned article would be deleted. Thank you! Fade258 (talk) 01:30, 11 May 2022 (UTC)

- Delete not a proper international tour, as it's Zimbabwe A team. As a result, fails WP:GNG. Joseph2302 (talk) 08:10, 9 May 2022 (UTC)
- This article South Africa A cricket team in Zimbabwe in 2021–22 is also not proper International Tour. Since, between two sides, Nepal and Zimbabwe A, Nepal is a full fledged national side and Zimbabwe A may not be. So, this fact should be considered. The article like Australia A and South Africa A cricket team in India in 2018 which has no issues whatsoever and article like this is getting issues makes me sad. So, please do not consider it for deletion. Nepal cricket team itself doesnot have many exposure as compared to test playing nations so this should be considered as important match for Nepal.

- Delete Per nom and others, not a full international tour. Can't see any real coverage that equates to GNG coverage. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 20:47, 10 May 2022 (UTC)
- It had great coverage equivalent to other International tours in Nepal. The match was broadcasted live and each game had thousands of spectators coming to see the game so it is an important game. Rmudvari (talk) 01:37, 11 May 2022 (UTC)
- @Rmudvari: could you provide some examples of the coverage? Press articles etc... rather than press releases and so on would be a good idea. I can't see anything in The Herald (a Zimbabwean newspaper), but it might need Nepalese sources. I can find this article in the Himalyan Times which would help - if there are more like that then there might be enough coverage. Fwiw, without the same sort of sources, I'd vote delete for the other A tour you've shown us above. Blue Square Thing (talk) 20:17, 12 May 2022 (UTC)

- Delete...there is no logical purpose to create an article for any and every tour a sports team takes. If the info is notable, there are several other more logical places for it to reside. Wikipedia is not a indiscriminate repository of information. Jacona (talk) 11:39, 13 May 2022 (UTC)
