Lighting

There are diesel generators that have been installed to guard against interrupted power supply during games.^{[citation needed]} These lights were upgraded for the 2022 IPL to replace filament lights with LED for increased lux rating with lower energy consumption.

Pitch and outfield

For the ground, 200 tons of clay were imported from South Africa. The pitch was prepared based on the advice and guidance of Neil Tainton and John Klug from South Africa. Stadiums around India typically have outfields made from red soil. When it rains, the outfield tends to become sluggish and heavy. To minimise the interruption because of rain, the outfield here is sand-based. A completely concealed underground drainage system helps quickly remove water. A practise ground with 10 practice pitches is also on the campus next to the main stadium.

Individual bucket seats are available to spectators. There are no pillars obstructing the views of the ground. Two giant LED screens provide scores, replays, and other information. ^{[citation needed]}

Spectators are monitored by a network of digital cameras producing images of very high quality, which are sent to security agencies. Axis cameras (the product of a Sweden-based company), like the ones installed in Mons-Bergen football stadium in Belgium, have been installed for the first time in India. The surveillance system is highly advanced when compared to conventional CCTVs. The stadium is designed to be earthquake-proof, with fire-fighting and evacuation facilities.
