Eden Garden Stadium Pitch Report:
The pitch at Eden Gardens has become a batsman's paradise! The last two matches here have been high-scoring affairs, with both RCB falling just one run short chasing 223 and RR equaling the IPL record for the highest successful run chase. While KKR's bowling attack might deserve some scrutiny, the real story seems to be the flat, bowler-unfriendly surface that's producing these batting fireworks.
