Salem Spartans

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Fails WP:NCRIC inclusion guidelines for cricket teams and wider WP:GNG. References appear to be routine coverage, with no in-depth sources establishing notability. From a cricketing context, this is a minor team in a minor regional league. There are several similar articles on teams in this league, which have the same deletion rationale.

Also nominated are:
 * Chepauk Super Gillies
 * Lyca Kovai Kings
 * Dindigul Dragons
 * IDream Tiruppur Tamizhans
 * Siechem Madurai Panthers
 * Ruby Trichy Warriors
 * Nellai Royal Kings StickyWicket (talk) 13:30, 18 March 2023 (UTC)

 * Weak keep I don't see a reason really for deleting this articles. Obviously the teams exist (although they don't play in an official T20) league, but I don't see an issue with them being represented on Wikipedia with an article, although GNG coverage might be limited. The other option is to redirect them all to the league article. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 11:34, 19 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Redirect all to Tamil Nadu Premier League. The teams are not independently notable as the references in the pages do not appear to pass WP:GNG.  Frank   Anchor  14:36, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Redirect all to Tamil Nadu Premier League. The teams in this league do not get enough coverage to warrant separate articles, and all the relevant information can be found or added to the page about the league. Joseph2302 (talk) 12:15, 21 March 2023 (UTC)
