Report on the Eden Gardens Pitch
Batters have a preference for surfaces at Eden Gardens. The surface is known to slow down in the later parts of the game, providing favorable conditions for the spinners, yet it also offers bounce in the early stages. At this legendary location, going to bat first and establishing a large target can turn out to be a smart move.
