Eden Gardens Stadium Pitch Report

The pitch in Kolkata is decent for batting, with an average first-innings score of 195 in the last 10 IPL games. However, the previous game saw 412 runs being scored across both innings. There should be ample help available for both pacers and spinners. Although chasing will be the preferred option as the overall stats suggest.
