Eden Gardens Pitch Report:
The Eden Gardens pitch has generated a great deal of criticism. According to sources, the stunning stadium is prepared with two types of pitches. In recent years, the historic arena has seen an increase in the use of high-scoring pitches. However, the spinners will benefit more from the second surface. It has been reported that the forthcoming match will have a slow pitch. Then, spinners will probably control the proceedings. Before the game, it will be crucial for the captains to assess the pitch and adjust their preparations accordingly.
Weather Report:
Rain is not expected in Kolkata on the day of the game. During the game, the temperature is expected to be in the late 20s.
