Kkr vs gt pitch report: In IPL 2025, defending champion Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will play the fourth match at their home ground eden gardens on 21 April. Kolkata will compete with the Gujarat Titans in this match. This will be the 39th match of IPL 2025, in which the host Kolkata team will expect a better performance from their batsmen against the Gujarat Titans, holding the top in the points table. Kolkata’s performance against Punjab Kings in the last match was disappointing when it was all out for just 95 runs chasing a target of 112 runs. In such a situation, the Kolkata batsmen will have to bat strongly against the Gujarat bowlers. The KKR team has so far scored 6 points in seven matches and to stay in the playoff race, they have to win at least 5 of their seven matches.

Pitch report

The pitch of Eden Gardens is considered very suitable for batsmen. However, Kolkata pitch is likely to help both fast bowlers and spinners. The captains, who won the toss in the 3 matches played this season, have decided to bowl first, but the teams batting first have won two matches. The toss -winning team is expected to bowl first, as the matches played between KKR and GT can play an important role. A total of 96 IPL matches have been played at the Eden Gardens, in which the team who batted first has won 40 matches. At the same time, the target team has won 56 matches.
