- The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review). No further edits should be made to this page.
The result was redirect to T20 Global League. There is no consensus to delete the articles before redirecting; some editors want to retain history, only the nominator "prefers" to delete and redirect. There is no consensus on the amount of information to merge; this can be discussed on the talk page of the league if necessary, especially since the article histories won't be deleted.

League was canceled so the these previous teams stand null and void. New teams are introduced and each one has article. This and other listed articles fail WP:CRIN. Störm (talk) 20:00, 2 November 2018 (UTC)

- Point of clarification, since the article I got here via (Stellenbosch Kings) didn't mention it. @Störm: The league never played a single match, so these teams effectively never played? —C.Fred (talk) 20:18, 2 November 2018 (UTC)
- Keep history but redirect. No point in having an article about the team, per WP:CRIN. However, since they will be mentioned in the history of the league, they're reasonable search terms for the league, and I think it's worth leaving the history visible. —C.Fred (talk) 20:25, 2 November 2018 (UTC)

- Comment is there a source showing the league was cancelled for 2018? SportingFlyer talk 04:12, 3 November 2018 (UTC)

- That's from last year. Is the league about to begin? Or has it been cancelled/postponed indefinitely? I think this would be outcome-determinative for this AfD. SportingFlyer talk 00:06, 4 November 2018 (UTC)
- @SportingFlyer: The league has been replaced by the Mzansi Super League. This article sort of explains that. But only sort of. Blue Square Thing (talk) 14:55, 4 November 2018 (UTC)
