Eden Gardens Pitch Report

The pitch at the Eden Gardens is good for batting because it’s flat. There is consistent bounce as well. Spinners might get some help as the game progresses. However, there was rain every day last week in Kolkata as well as in the morning of the match day. The surface was fully covered and it would have moisture. So pacers will have a different say if the match happens.
