Eden Gardens Pitch Report
The pitch at Kolkata’s Eden Gardens is made of black soil, which generally favours the batters. While pacers tend to get some help early on, spinners can also come into play later in the match. However, if a batter spends enough time at the crease, playing big shots becomes relatively easy. The outfield at this ground is also quite fast, so in short, big runs are often on the cards.
A total of 95 matches have been played at Eden Gardens. Teams batting first have won 39 times, while teams chasing have emerged victorious on 56 occasions.
