Eden Gardens in Kolkata hosts the reverse fixture KKR vs DC on Monday, April 29. This is the sixth game at the Eden Gardens. Kolkata Knight Riders won the previous contest against Delhi Capitals in Vizag.
KKR are heading into this game after losing their match against Punjab Kings. They conceded 262 after scoring 261 with the bat as they allowed PBKD to set the record for the highest run-chase in IPL history.
The Eden track and tracks in general in the IPL have been the talking point since that game on Friday. The loss has put KKR in a position of some trouble. They now have six games remaining. They are on 10 points and need to get to 16 to almost secure their spot in the playoffs.
DC themselves are in a bit of a torrid run. They are in the lower half of the points table needing to win games themselves. They played a tough game against Mumbai Indians and won it before taking on KKR in Kolkata. The Capitals lost to MI in the first game and won the reverse fixture in Delhi on Saturday.
As the season approaches its closure to the league stage, there is desperation among all the teams to move up the points table but the number of high-scoring games so far has made experts question the pitches across venues.
