The Indian Premier League team Delhi Daredevils was given permission to use this stadium for two of their home games during IPL - 6 in January 2013 by the Board of Control for Cricket in India. In January, Raipur was given two IPL games after the chief minister invited GMR, the franchise's owners, to hold some of their home games there. In February, the state's public works department sprang into action to spruce up the ground in time; they finished work on the interior in less than two months. 

The approvals came in after inspections and a few meetings. The first IPL game was played on April 28, 2013, and Delhi Daredevils defeated Pune Warriors by a score of 15 runs.  As a result, it hosted an IPL match at a total of 19 venues. On May 1, 2013, Delhi Daredevils and Kolkata Knight Riders played their second game. The Chhattisgarh State government had exempted the tickets from the entertainment tax in order to guarantee bigger success.  A few Indian Premier League games from 2014 had to be played at the stadium, but they were postponed because of the general elections. In the 2015 Indian Premier League, Delhi Daredevils served as the host team, and Raipur was once again given two IPL games. The first match between Delhi Daredevils and Sunrisers Hyderabad was played on May 9, 2015; Sunrisers won by 6 runs, and Moises Henriques was named Man of the Match for scoring 74 runs off of only 46 balls. The second match, which took place on May 12, 2015, pitted Delhi Daredevils against Chennai Super Kings. Daredevils easily defeated Super Kings by 6 wickets, and Zaheer Khan was named Man of the Match for his economical bowling. The Delhi Daredevils' second home field for the 2016 Indian Premier League has once more been announced as Raipur. The inaugural game between Delhi Daredevils and Sunrisers Hyderabad took place on May 20, 2016. This was the second time the two teams had met in this stadium. While Sunrisers defeated Daredevils in a closely contested match in 2015, this time it came down to the final ball, and this time it was Daredevils who prevailed by defeating Sunrisers by 6 wickets on the very last ball of the match thanks to Karun Nair's 83-run performance for which he was named Man of the Match. The second match of the 2016 IPL was played on May 22, 2016, and it was also the final league game of the season. Both teams needed to win this match to advance to the playoffs. By defeating Daredevils by a margin of six wickets, Royal Challengers came out on top and advanced to the playoffs. The Delhi Daredevils were eliminated and were unable to advance. 

  The 2014 Champions League Twenty20 had eight T20 matches played at Stadium. They included all six Qualifier games in addition to the two Group Stage contests. The qualifier games were split into two halves. The qualifiers sold out for the first time in CLT20 history.
