You talked about “they are spread over a continent”. I think you’re referring to the south asians in US?
Well..
in the Newyork Ghettos over a million desis (Ind, Bd, pk), California alone, has over 500k Indians (South asians), according to 2010 census, which is double more in population than Tower hamlets. Doesn’t that warrant a cricket stadium to be built in the sunny Cali, having big South Asian population.
What do you have to say about that?

This is a ridiculous post dude, you talk as if it's all a matter of just wanting to do it.
Just think about what it takes to actually build a stadium.
Really think about it. I assure you it's not as easy as coming together over the weekend. Do you have any idea how expensive land is? And also in sunny Cali, which has one of the most expensive real estate on the planet.
And even if building a stadium was that easy,
why build one? So that a desi team can visit once in a while? Does that really warrant a stadium?
FYI - 500k is nothing for a country that has 330+ million people. Don't compare UK figures with the US - we have states bigger than that Kingdom.
Just to recap: You are asking why a minority group that doesn't even comprise 1% of the population can't build a stadium in 2 of the most expensive places on the planet for a sport that has no fan following.
