Eden Gardens has established itself as a batting paradise, particularly for teams chasing under lights. The venue has gained a reputation as one of the most favourable chasing grounds in T20 cricket. This is the same venue where Punjab Kings pulled off the highest successful run-chase in T20 history, gunning down 262 runs against Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL 2024. Dew is also expected to play a significant role in evening matches, making it increasingly difficult for bowlers to grip the ball as the game progresses.
