IPL Live: Pitch Report
The Eden Gardens surface presents a fascinating challenge. With dimensions of 66m and 60m square, and 74m straight, it’s a relatively small ground, favouring big hitters. The pitch itself appears dry and dark with patches of dead grass and a few bare areas. Although it lacks live grass, the surface is holding together well and is unlikely to break up or behave inconsistently like the occasional jigsaw-type Eden wicket. There could be some early grip for spinners as it may slow down in the first half, but overall, it looks good for batting.
