The Uttar Pradesh Cricket Association (UPCA) uses the Green Park Stadium on the basis of an MoU it has signed with the UP government. The government owns the land but as per the MoU, the stadium and its upkeep are the responsibility of the UPCA.

The pitch for this Test match, meanwhile, earned a "satisfactory" rating.

The ICC rates pitches and outfields for all international games on a scale of very good to unfit: very good, satisfactory, unsatisfactory and unfit. One demerit point is awarded to venues for an unsatisfactory rating, and three for an unfit rating. If any ground receives five or more demerit points in a five-year rolling period, it is suspended from hosting any international cricket for 12 months.

The rest of the venues that hosted India's 2024-25 international season did not come in for any censure from the ICC. Of the pitches on which India played their five Tests, four - including all three that hosted the recently concluded series against New Zealand, in Bengaluru, Pune and Mumbai - earned "satisfactory" ratings, while the surface at Chennai's MA Chidambaram Stadium, which hosted the first Test against Bangladesh, earned a "very good" tag.
