Sunrisers → Sunrisers (women's cricket) – Sunrisers is also the name of men's IPL team Sunrisers Hyderabad, who are far more established and well known. Therefore, it is likely that people searching for Sunrisers would be looking for the Indian men's team rather than the English women's team who have only existed since 2020. And Sunrisers should redirect to Sunrisers Hyderabad, or be a DAB page. Joseph2302 (talk) 13:42, 9 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Support purely anecdotal, but I live in the catchment area for this team, and had no idea it existed until the scorer at a women's game I was at asked me if I was following the Sunrisers results. I thought he meant the IPL team and it was not until he mentioned some players that I realised there must be a local team with the same name. I'd go with redirect and hat note as the Hyderabad team is clear PT. Incidentally, what is a sunriser? Spike &#39;em (talk) 08:36, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Support as the English women's team is evidently not the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC: the majority of hits in a Google News search for "Sunrisers" -"Hyderabad" are still about the Hyderabad team, and they get hundreds of thousands of page views per month , while Sunrisers, Sunrisers Drum and Bugle Corps, and don't even break double digits. 59.149.124.29 (talk) 05:18, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
