Eden Gardens-Pitch Report
This Eden Gardens pitch in the last game was a belter for the batsman, the home team KKR scored 204 runs from this pitch but RCB lost the game by 81 runs. This pitch will be no different from the last game played here however the dew factor could be a major issue for the team bowling second. It is expected that the ball will come slow to the batsman so hitting long sixes will be difficult. The pitch will be dry initially as always and initial help for the fast bowling is still possible and as the match goes, it could turn and help the spinners.

Predicted Score
The team winning the toss will bat first considering the pitch behaviour from the last match and the due factor will play a major role for the team bowling second. The impact player will be a key factor on this game, the impact player either a batsman or a bowler will have to play a major role on this game. The team batting first will score anywhere between 175-195 runs and the team batting first will win the match by defending the score.
Predicted Match Winners
KKR has high probability of winning the match considering the form of its players especially from the last match victory where Rinku Singh played a blinder of an innings to score 5 sixes in the last 5 balls of the match and it came out of nowhere to win the match. It was incredible to watch the innings of his life and one of the turning point of this tournament. SRH has very good players too under the leadership of Aiden Markram and they are coming together as a team to win the matches. KKR will have to earn the victory from SRH and it will not be easy though.
Players to watch
KKR – Andre Russell, Sunil Narine, Suyash Sharma
SRH – Marco Jansen, Rahul Tripathi
