Gujarat Cricket Association president Amit Shah is scheduled to announce the details of the refurbishment of the stadium, constructed in 1983 in time to host the Test match against the West Indies, on November 15 at the GCA's AGM, it was learned.
"The east and west stands are unlikely to be touched but there are plans to refurbish the northern and southern parts of the stadium. The time frame would have to be decided once the company to do the job is identified," GCA sources said today.
The southern stand houses the teams' dressing rooms and pavilion while the northern end has the media box and TV commentators' box, perched right on top above the stands for the spectators.
