Venue: Eden Gardens, Kolkata

Date & Time: Wednesday, May 7, 7:30 PM

Pitch Report: It is anticipated that the Eden Gardens pitch will be a close match. The even grass cover this season has made it difficult for spinners, but it has aided seamers early on with swing and bounce. Dew might be crucial in the second inning. Although slow bowlers found success and grip in the previous game played here, the pitch is predicted to favor batters more this time. After winning the toss, the winning side may decide to bat first and score a high total.
