The penultimate game of the Mumbai Indians’ (MI) IPL 2024 campaign is scheduled to take place at Eden Gardens. The Mumbai Indians are already eliminated from consideration for the postseason, while Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) have almost assured themselves a spot in the IPL 2024 final four.
Over the past two weeks, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) have played flawless cricket and have risen to the top of the table. In addition to bowling Shreyas Iyer’s games to victory, Sunil Narine and Phil Salt have been in excellent form at the bat.
The Mumbai Indians (MI) have suffered greatly this season as a result of their aimless tactics. Hardik Pandya will want to ensure that his club doesn’t finish the season at the bottom of the standings, and their victory over Sunrisers Hyderabad will offer them some optimism.

A world record pursuit was accomplished in the last few games played at this location, with numerous runs scored. Although pursuing could be a smart option given that the ball hits the bat more easily in low light, teams that bat first typically have a strong record. The pace on this wicket has remained genuine, so pace bowlers will find it enjoyable to bowl.
