KKR vs Eden Gardens Pitch Curator Tussle Worsens, Official Says: "Give Him..."
The Eden Gardens pitch controversy made a comeback once again after Kolkata Knight Riders lost their IPL 2025 match against Lucknow Super Giants in Kolkata on Tuesday. It was KKR's second loss at the venue in three matches. Chasing a mammoth target of 238, KKR felt short by just 4 runs to slump to their third loss in this year's competition. KKR captain Ajinkya Rahane previously expressed his frustration at the 'lack of home advantage' and even hinted at a possible rift with chief curator Sujan Mukherjee. Following the loss, a report by Bengali newspaper Sangbad Pratidin revealed a sarcastic conversation between a KKR official and an official from the Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB). The KKR official suggested that CAB was happy that the team lost their match and even suggested that the curator should receive the Man Of The Match award.
