In August 2021, the ground was the venue for the first ever Twenty20 Internationals (T20Is) to be held in Portugal, when Portugal's team hosted a tri-nation series against Malta and Gibraltar between 19 and 22 August 2021.[1] These were the first official T20I matches to be played in Portugal since the International Cricket Council (ICC) granted full T20I status to all competitive matches between its members from 1 January 2019.[2]
