No evidence that this independent list passes WP:NLIST or WP:GNG. The tables themselves are unsourced, and I imagine will be very difficult to fully source. The main coverage of venues seems to be that in 3 seasons, matches were played abroad (which is already covered in those season articles, and is not a justification for having a list of every venue), and there don't look to be high quality sources such as newspapers making reference to the number of matches at venues i.e. venue X held its 50th IPL match today, which would be one basis for claiming notability of this list.

• Delete Blatant violation of WP:NOTSTATS and fails WP:NLIST. The venues have not been discussed as a group or set by independent reliable sources, and didn't receive significant coverage about hosting the IPL matches. The only source in the article is from the IPL official website, which also doesn't list the full list of venues used since 2008. They just listed the venues for this season and the venues will change every season. Even the statistical websites like Cricinfo or CricketArchive doesn't have separate lists for IPL venues.

• Delete largely per Robocric. No independent coverage of the stadiums as all being IPL venues, and the information about each stadium is not sourced on the page. The stadiums can (and probably should) be grouped together somewhere, but I think a category or a template is most appropriate. Frank Anchor 15:18, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Fails WP:NLIST. All of this can be covered in the main article page. Rugbyfan22 (talk) 19:04, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
