Eden Gardens Kolkata Pitch Report

The surface at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata will offer a hint of seam movement to the new ball bowlers early on in the powerplay. However, considering the track's even pace and bounce, expect the batters to thrive once they negotiate the new ball spell. 

There could be some turn on offer for the spinners, who might capitalise on it in the middle overs. Overall, it will be a decent batting track with truckloads of runs on offer. 

Historically, teams batting second have been more successful at the venue, winning 52 matches as opposed to only 36 by those batting first. Considering the track record, the toss-winner will likely field first.
