After the devastating
April 2015 Nepal earthquake, basic infrastructures of the ground were destroyed. Cricket Association of Nepal rebuilt initial basic infrastructures. In November 2025, first phase of upgrade was completed, adding seating capacity of 10,000 and six flood lights; construction had begun March 2025. Work was initiated by then Prime minister of Nepal
K. P. Sharma Oli, who ordered the work to be completed within three months. Due to unforeseen circumstances—the climate and production delays—the first phase was pushed further and was completed later in the year. Minister
Kul Man Ghising officially inaugurated the floodlights and the stadium 16 November 2025. The construction is scheduled to continue in 2026—with second and third phases for a complete final capacity of 30,000—and expected to be complete by November 2026. ==Major sports events==
