Unable to delete Azure Active Directory tenant?

So I unknowingly created a teams organisation with my personal account. I have tried many ways to delete it, but I don't know anything about Azure and all. I'll try to be as precise as I can about my steps. First, I retrieved the personal admin email (admin@****....onmicrosoft.com), then I went to Microsoft3 admin centre > your products > delete/disable subscriptions , wait for 3 days.
I still see a [Delete all Azure subscriptions and underlying resources] undone. How do I proceed to delete this thing.

Any help will be appreciated

    @Aadarsh Ashutosh
    Thank you for your post!

    To delete your Teams Organization, if it's a Teams free org you can do this through our - Delete your Teams Free (classic) organization article. However, if you're trying to delete the entire Azure Active Directory with your Teams Org, you can reference our Delete a tenant in Azure Active Directory documentation.

    Delete the Azure AD organization:

    1. Sign in to the Azure AD admin center with an account that is the Global Administrator for your organization.
    2. Select Azure Active Directory.
    3. On a tenant Overview page, select Manage tenants.
    4. Select the check box for the tenant you want to delete and select Delete.

    Note: If your organization does not pass one or more checks, you're provided with a link to more information on how to pass. After you pass all checks, select Delete to complete the process.
