- Delete Although the article is unsourced, the term is definitely widely used. However, that doesn't mean that an article is required, this doesn't exactly rank in the same league as The Invincibles. -SpacemanSpiffCalvin‡Hobbes 19:27, 3 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - ugh, "The above quartet is a group of batsmen who have ruled the world stage for almost one and a half decades"? Most of that time they weren't even #1 in the Test rankings... Kill it: between WP:N, WP:NEO, WP:OR I'm not convinced there's anything really to be salvaged here. AllynJ (talk | contribs)

- Comment - There's even more the Fab Five, which is just as much an arbitrary grouping. [1] Abeer.ag (talk) 18:57, 4 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per WP:NPOV, and anyway there is nothing here which cannot be included in one of the individual player articles. Note also the one reference on the page, which is actually an article about them, er, not being so fab after all. Nice irony that the two items in the "other quartets" section are more commonly grouped than these, though. EJBH (talk) 09:45, 5 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
