KKR Vs SRH: Eden Gardens Pitch Report
The Eden Gardens pitch is classically famous for being batting-friendly, providing true bounce and an even surface, which facilitates stroke play. But in comparison to Bengaluru or Hyderabad, the Kolkata pitch is not as flat, providing some initial movement for pacers.
The Batters can look forward to good bounce and pace, facilitating free-flowing stroke play while Pacers will receive help with the new ball, particularly under lights. The Spinners could come into the equation as the match goes on, with some turn available.
