Fails WP:NLIST. No source discusses his centuries as a group. The consensus is that such lists are not required. Störm (talk) 06:57, 27 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete as per Storm, fails WP:NLIST and no need to merge it to Tamim Iqbal since we have already reached a consensus not to include the list of centuries scored or 5 wicket hauls taken in the biographical articles of the cricketers. Abishe (talk) 08:56, 27 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  Recent discussions have resulted in "merge" (Martyn, Hafeez), "redirect and merge if anyone wants to" (Atherton, Latham, Chandimal), or "redirect but no consensus to merge" (Guptill, Ali). Nowhere is there consensus not to merge, and that is explicit in the closing statements. _wjemather^{please leave a message...} 09:58, 27 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep or Merge to Tamim Iqbal. Lists of international centuries are, by definition, notable achievements and detailing significant numbers in prose alone is cumbersome and impairs readability, so tables are the way to go. These lists have the necessary context and explanation so do not fail NOTSTATS. Having said that, there are no issues with inclusion in the main subject article, per WP:NOTSTATS and WP:SPLIT, so a merge would be appropriate. _wjemather^{please leave a message...} 09:47, 27 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete with the option of some prose and, possibly, a much cut down summary version of these tables added to the player's page. We don't need to be clogging up biographies with massively complex tables of statistics when we could summarise - and perhaps usefully use a table at that time. Blue Square Thing (talk) 17:48, 27 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per WP:NOTSTATS/WP:RAWDATA. "To provide encyclopedic value, data should be put in context with explanations referenced to independent sources." This article is just a list of scores from ESPNCricinfo and has no independent sources covering these individual achievements as a set. Agree with nom that there should be no precedent to include these on players' articles. Ajf773 (talk) 08:37, 28 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Note to AFD closer recent afds were closed as Merge - Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Faf du Plessis (2nd nomination); Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Marvan Atapattu; Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Cheteshwar Pujara, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Michael Hussey; Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Desmond Haynes; Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Colin Cowdrey; Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Martin Crowe; Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Wally Hammond; Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Justin LangerDavidstewartharvey (talk) 10:44, 3 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• The following also resulted in DELETE: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Mushfiqur Rahim, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Upul Tharanga and Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Shakib Al Hasan while these following articles resulted in redirection to player's article: Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Michael Atherton, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Tom Latham, Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of international cricket centuries by Dinesh Chandimal. With all of these lists of centuries or five-wicket hauls for players we are getting mixed outcomes. Admin needs to allow greater discussions (longer than a week) on all AfD's without resulting to arbitrary outcomes. Ajf773 (talk) 08:54, 4 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
