If you go to the azure active directory portal, in the groups and search for your groups, did you see the Teams there?

Check also that it's not somewhere deleted. Maybe there was something with a similar name. For example with powershell
Connect-AzureAD Get-AzureADMSDeletedGroup

  Please find my response : If you go to the azure active directory portal, in the groups and search for your groups, did you see the Teams there? - I cannot see Teams Option and its missing.
  Connect-AzureAD Get-AzureADMSDeletedGroup
  The output for the above is as below.
  
  Can you please help me on this.

    If you try by powershell, is the error the same? Or more clear?
    to create a Team to a group, first install
    Install-Module MicrosoftTeams
    then
    Connect-MicrosoftTeams New-Team -Group <Group id>
    with the group id equal to the objectID of your screenshot
