IND vs ENG: Eden Gardens stats

The upcoming IND vs ENG T20I will be held at Eden Gardens, which has hosted only 11 T20Is so far, with an average first innings score of 143. However, the venue’s IPL history suggests a different trend.

While the pitch at Eden Gardens may favor the bowlers, batsmen are likely to dominate. In IPL 2024, four out of seven games saw the home team scoring over 200 runs, and in all four of those matches, the chasing teams also surpassed 200 runs, with Punjab Kings chasing a record-breaking 261.

Both teams should also consider the dew factor, and it is anticipated that the captain winning the toss will choose to bowl first.
