Hey there, DRALOKSHARMA74, let's jump right into this!
If I understand this right, someone invited you to join their Dropbox team with your personal account that you now have trouble accessing.
Do you get any specific errors when trying to sign into your account online? How long has this been an issue? Also, have you tried contacting the team's admin by any chance?
You might want to take a look at this relevant article too.
Let me know more, and we'll take it from there!

As you are in a Team there is nothing you can do - the Team 'owns' your account, you give it that right when you join the Team. You need to ask the Team admin to remove you from it. If your account is showing a fresh account it sounds like the data has already been removed and so its not recoverable - but again, you need to ask the Team owner about that. Data is wiped from unused team accounts that are over quota (but they get lots and lots of warnings this is happening).
