Pitch controversy at home
The match of KKR vs LSG was moved due to the celebrations of RAM Navami in Kolkata. Previously, it was reported that the match would be moved from Calcutta and will be given by Guwahati. But India announced today that the cabin tried everything in her hands to keep the game at home.
While the KKR game remained in Kolkata, the champion advocates is at home separate controversial cooking. The KRK had a tense distance with the curator Sujan Mukherjee after Captain Ajinkya Raha did not like the fact that the home playground does not suit the strengths of the team.
“We would like to see how the playground helps with the rotation of the pitch, but again this goal was in the last and a half days under the cover,” Rahane said at a press conference after the match. “The two spinners we have, the quality we have, can miss a mission for any kind of goal, and I’m sure they are also confident.”
This turned into a war of words after curator Eden Pitch hit the franchise and said that no one had the power to question the playground that was doing at the stadium.
Sujan’s comments irritated the former New Zealand stimulator Simon Doull, who analyzed the match on Cricbuzz. Doull baked the curator and said he was not paid to comment on the game. He went even further and thought the KKR should give up from Eden if necessary if they do not receive ideal conditions suitable for their strength.
“If (curator) does not give up the attention of what the home team wants, I think the fees for the stadium pays, pay for what is happening in the IPL, but if it still does not apply that what is the home team, then only moves where it is first recorded.
