Construction

Cricket Association of Nepal had initiated to construct two grounds in Mulpani after the Asian Cricket Council's plan to build its central cricket academy in the current Mulpani venue didn't materialise.[2][3][4]

In 2011, the stadium received रु 3 crores for its construction from Ministry of Youth and Sports as well as CAN signed a contract with Gaura Construction Pvt. Ltd.

In 2013, National Sports Council allocated around रु 4.5 crores from the sports budget for a second cricket ground in Mulpani.

In 2014, the stadium is allocated a separate रु 20 crores for its construction in the 2014/15 budget presented by the Finance Minister.[5]

The stadium will have capacity of 40,000, two-storey pavilion building will have a store room, players´ change-room, medical room, umpires seating area, CAN operation office, VIP seating area, media room, media center and live commentary room.

gollark: Or `redstone.getSides()`, which is exactly the same.
gollark: Yes, not really sure why you'd want the return value in any case.
gollark: If you want to see the table's contents, use the `textutils.serialise` function.
gollark: It means it's returning a table, and `tostring` which I believe `print` uses internally doesn't actually print their contents.
