IND vs SA: India vs South Africa clash at Eden Gardens, know how the pitch will be today
IND vs SA Pitch Report: Team India will face South Africa today (November 5) in World Cup 2023. This match will be played at Eden Gardens, the historical ground of Kolkata. In this tournament, two matches have been played on this ground so far and the bowlers have dominated in both the matches. Both fast bowlers and spinners have received almost equal help. The mood of the pitch is expected to be similar in today’s match.
By the way, a lot of runs have been seen here in the IPL matches, but in the last two matches of the World Cup, the behavior of the pitch has been seen in support of the bowlers. In these two matches, the team batting first has not even been able to touch the figure of 230. Here fast bowlers are ahead in taking wickets and spinners are much better in economy rate. In the previous match, dew was also seen here at night, due to which the batting in the second innings was a bit easier. Even today there is a good chance of helping the bowlers from the pitch. However, the batsmen will also have a chance here.
How are the field figures?
The mixed form of this field has also been seen in ODI cricket. Most of the bowlers have dominated here, but the batsmen have also shown up at times. More than 300 runs have been scored 8 times in 33 matches here. A score of 400+ has been made here once. At the same time, it has happened 21 times when the team has not even touched the figure of 200 here.
The team batting first has won 7 times in the last 9 matches on this ground. However, the chasing team will have more chances to win, given the possibility of rain falling in the night.
The Indian team has played a total of 22 matches here. In these he has faced 13 wins and 8 losses. A match is inconclusive. South Africa’s record is also good here. The Proteas team has played 4 matches on this ground, in which they have won 2 and lost 2.
