PAK vs BAN: Pitch Report
Eden Gardens Stadium in Kolkata is known for producing high-scoring ODIs. On average, the team batting first scores about 235, while the team batting second averages 201. The highest score record at this venue is held by India, who notched up 404/5 against Sri Lanka in 2014.

Out of the 32 ODIs played here, the team batting first has won 19 times, while the chasing team has taken the match 12 times. One game ended with no result. The Eden Gardens pitch tends to favour bowlers as the game progresses, and spinners often play a pivotal role. Hence, the captain winning the toss might prefer to bat first in these conditions.
