Fails WP:GNG. Of the 7 listed sources on the article, 2 are user-generated wiki profiles, 4 are brief mentions (x was on the team), 1 (computerworld pakistan) gives a mention of his stats in 2 sentences. Doing a WP:BEFORE search, I couldn't find any other articles with WP:SIGCOV. My attempt to search in Urdu gave me nothing, and Urdu Wikipedia doesn't appear to have an article either. A proper other language search might give something, but it feels unlikely. Since no SNG exists for esports, I used WP:GNG, which this appears to fail. Bungle491 (talk) 21:30, 29 September 2026 (UTC)

- Delete – Liquipedia is user-edited, EIN Presswire is a press-release distributor and his own team's site is not independent; the one Dawn item is about the squad's Asian Games bronze, not about him (WP:GNG). Kukuryza (talk) 23:34, 30 September 2026 (UTC)
