In match No. 42 of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 Kolkata Knight Riders will lock horns against Punjab Kings at the prestigious Eden Gardens Stadium, Kolkata on April 26, 2024.

Shreyas Iyer & Co. have won their last fixture against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) by a mere margin of 1 run. The franchise has had a notable start to the ongoing league as they are currently placed in second position in the points table and have won five out of seven matches they have played.

On the other hand, Punjab Kings have lost some crucial games with small margins and are 9th in the points table with only two wins in eight matches.

So ahead, of this much-anticipated encounter, let's look at how the surface of Eden Gardens is expected to behave throughout the match.


Eden Gardens Kolkata Pitch Report

The pitch at Eden Gardens has always been friendly to the batters as the boundary size is not too big and the out-field is fast making it comfortable for the batters to play. 

The surface is generally flat and the bounce is true which makes it very conducive to stroke play. 

The surface is expected to provide the Pacers some bounce, however, spinners play an important role towards the latter phase of the match. The pitch contains a fair amount of turn and bounce to help the spinners.
