WP:PRIMARYTOPIC - Cricketer has played at the highest level of his sport by representing his country. Footballer has only played in semi-professional leagues. Jevansen (talk) 06:29, 1 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure that really matters considering the two subjects in question are both sportsmen. One is a fully professional international cricketer and the other is a semi-pro league footballer. I'd suggest the cricketer is much more well known.Jevansen (talk) 04:29, 3 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Support: A Test cricketer is clearly more notable than a footballer playing for an eight-tier English soccer club. IgnorantArmies?! 11:49, 4 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Support per IgnorantArmies. Grutness...wha? 00:46, 6 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Support per those above. Also, please note that if this RM is successful, the dab page can be deleted and a hatnote added to the cricketer's article instead (per WP:TWODABS). Jenks24 (talk) 00:04, 7 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
