Sher-e-Bangla National Cricket Stadium has already been familiar in the international context as one of the successful ICC Venue- as a 'Home of Cricket'. The ground is one of the most well equipped and has world class facilities. Originally constructed for football, the venue was taken over by Bangladesh Cricket Board (BCB) in 2004 and Bashat Architects Engineers was appointed for its renovation & remodelling as an international cricket stadium.

On the occasion of ICC T-20 World Cup 2014, Sylhet divisional stadium was upgraded to a full-fledged ICC standard venue for International cricket. Designed by Bashat Architects Engineers Ltd, the project seeks a delicate balance between local building culture and international standards. The stadium is also unique for being the only stadium in Bangladesh having a Green Gallery.
