Earlier the news is coming that this match can be shifted from here because the stadium is in bad condition, where the possibility of early match is very less. The financial condition of the stadium is also because a severe storm Cyclone Phani knocked here this year. Cyclone Phani had done a lot of damage in Odisha, with a lot of damage in the stadium as well. Floodlights stand, press boxes and old pavilions at Barabati Stadium were severely damaged.

Since then the stadium did not work, because it required a lot of money which neither the State Cricket Association nor the State Government could provide for it. The Odisha Cricket Association did not continue the stadium repair work due to lack of funds. About 60 lights fell down from the floodlight tower.
In such a situation, the stadium was not able to hold any day-night match. In addition, the roof of the new pavilion, gallery number 5 and digital scoreboard had also collapsed. The association has not yet started renovation work. In such a situation, the December game can be postponed from here. According to the news, the Odisha board has sought financial help from the BCCI.
