Initially, the Purbachal cricket complex was planned to include a five-star hotel, swimming pool, gym, pavilion, and media center alongside the stadium.

However, after the change in political leadership, former cricketer and selector Faruque Ahmed took over as BCB president in August last year. Soon after assuming office, he announced plans to revise the stadium’s name and design. Subsequently, the stadium’s tender was canceled.
