• Delete. This CricBuzz article and reprints of it were all I was able to find for coverage. His name is in the title, but the article doesn't really go into much depth about him as a person, it's probably not significant coverage. Bowling and coaches don't have any
  WP:GNG sources are needed. –Novem Linguae (talk) 14:55, 26 February 2021 (UTC)[reply

  Keep. Now that I know that spin bowling is cricket (and not bowling), I can evaluate the correct SNG. Per Rugbyfan22, has played at the highest level (List A, first-class). Keep. Sorry for the confusion :) –Novem Linguae (talk) 18:00, 26 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep - he passes on both WP:GNG as a coach, as there are a raft of articles about him on pretty much every cricket website covering Bangladeshi cricket; but irrespective of that, after 13 first class matches he's a clear and easy pass on the basis of WP:CRIN criteria. I'm shocked that this article could be proposed for deletion. DevaCat1 (talk) 17:03, 26 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • WP:CRIN he meets and why? I'm happy to change my vote if convinced. Thank you for your time. –Novem Linguae (talk) 17:09, 26 February 2021 (UTC)[reply

    • Novem Linguae hopefully the revised version of the article meets your expectations. There are now multiple external links to various websites; I could go to more, but don't want to overload the article with external references. I've also added a box of stats. My view is that he would qualify under WP:GNG as a coach, but also as WP:CRIN as a player, by virtue of having played first class cricket and List A cricket.

• Keep: Played 13 first-class and 3 list-A matches in Bangladesh for the most successful side in the Bangladesh cricket league passing him for
  WP:CRIN. Also coached the Bangladesh national side as a spin bowling coach so passes that way as well. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 17:35, 26 February 2021 (UTC)[reply

• Keep. Comfortably meets NCRIC, and more importantly there is more than enough significant coverage to meet GNG. wjemather^{please leave a message...} 19:50, 26 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
