There's an omnibus AfD discussion which has closed with an outcome to merge Ricky Ponting with the Australian cricket team in India in 2008–09 to Australian cricket team in England in 1948. However, this clearly doesn't make sense; I'd argue that the tone of the discussion was to merge to the relevant series article, which in this case would be Australian cricket team in India in 2008–09.
