KKR vs GT IPL 2025 Match 39: Eden Gardens, Kolkata, Pitch & Weather Report

Pitch Report

The pitch at Eden Gardens is known for its batting-friendly nature, and with a generous grass coverage, it is expected to offer some assistance to the seamers early on. However, as the match progresses, the pitch is likely to become more conducive to batting, with the ball coming onto the bat nicely. The humid conditions and the presence of dew could make it challenging for the spinners to grip the ball, potentially tilting the balance in favour of the batters.

Weather Report

The weather in Kolakat on Monday is expected to be clear. As per IMD, the sky will remain clear from 7:00 pm to 11:00 pm, with temperatures ranging from 31°C to 28°C. The humidity level may rise to 90% which could lead to dew forming on the field, which cloud affeects the bowler’s grip. 

Expect a thrilling contest between KKR and GT, with batters likely to dominate the game!
