In match No. 42 of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 Kolkata Knight Riders will lock horns against Punjab Kings at the prestigious Eden Gardens Stadium, Kolkata today.
Shreyas Iyer & Co. have won their last fixture against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) by a mere margin of 1 run. The franchise has had a notable start to the ongoing league as they are currently placed in second position in the points table and have won five out of seven matches they have played.
On the other hand, Punjab Kings have lost some crucial games with small margins and are 9th in the points table with only two wins in eight matches. So ahead of this much-anticipated encounter, the surface of Eden Gardens is expected to behave throughout the match.
