• Keep Delete non-notable, no sources found. I didn't realize that the stadium is same as Sigra stadium. There are a few sources referring it as sigra stadium [1], [2]. --Anbu121 (talk me) 18:11, 4 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep A notable stadium. Ranji trophy matches and other national level matches have regularly been played here. --Shyamsunder (talk) 20:30, 4 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Can you point to some reliable sources for this? I didn't have much luck with my search, but would be happy to reconsider if some notability can be shown.--Arxiloxos (talk) 02:16, 5 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. Under Dr Sampurnanda Stadium, Varanasi, listed on CricketArchive as having hosted six first-class matches, thus making the ground notable per WikiProject Cricket's notability guidelines (clubs, teams and venues section). Needs a good tidy and potentially an article rename, though. IgnorantArmies (talk) 02:44, 5 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - Has held six first-class cricket matches, notable for the WP:CRIC's ground notability guidelines. Thanks to IA for finding that on CA, I was having trouble getting CA or CI to return any results! Howzat?Out!Out!Out! (talk) 13:31, 6 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
