Eden Gardens IPL T20 records: Eden Gardens Kolkata IPL T20 records batting and bowling

Eden Gardens IPL T20 records: The iconic venue will be hosting an Indian Premier League match after as many as three years.

Qualifier 1 of the ongoing 15th season of the Indian Premier League will be played between Gujarat Titans and Rajasthan Royals at the Eden Gardens tomorrow.

Playing their inaugural season, Titans have played exceedingly well to win 10 matches and end the league stage as the table-toppers. Royals, on the other hand, won nine league matches to finish at a position below Titans.

While GT will be playing their first-ever match at this venue, RR have played 10 times here in the past winning just two and losing the remaining eight to have a terrible record in Kolkata.

Kolkata, which had hosted West Indies for three T20Is earlier this year, will be hosting an IPL match after as many as three years. One of the two venues for IPL 2022 playoffs, this iconic stadium will also host an Eliminator match between Lucknow Super Giants and Royal Challengers Bangalore on Wednesday.
