Pitch Report:

Eden Gardens pitch in Kolkata is famous for being a batting haven.

Second-batting teams have been victorious on this ground in most of the 84 IPL matches (50 out of 84).

Expect a high-scoring match as both teams have powerful batting rosters.

Players to Watch:

Narine vs Samson will be the most important duel as Narine is a man in form against Samson historically in the IPL. The reappearance of Jos Buttler and Ravichandran Ashwin in RR’s batting and bowling, respectively, will be a great hand.

Who will win?

This match is a fight between two teams that are in good shape and the winner will be the one that is able to handle the pressure of the occasion better. It is expected to be a runfest.
