India’s chase turned into a nightmare at Eden Gardens, where nothing went right for the home side as preparing a rank turner backfired for them. With Shubman Gill ruled out due to a sudden neck spasm, India walked into the fourth innings already under pressure.
Well, the Eden Gardens pitch turned into the biggest talking point of the match. Right from Day 1, the surface had shown unpredictable bounce, but by the final innings, it became almost impossible to trust. Batters looked uncomfortable throughout the game, and across all four innings, only a single player from both teams managed to reach a half-century.
That was Temba Bavuma, who fought through the chaos in the third innings and helped South Africa set a tricky target of 124. South Africa’s bowlers then used the surface perfectly, hitting the cracks, extracting sharp turns, and letting the pitch do the rest at the Eden Gardens.
Team India refuses to leave Eden Gardens
Meanwhile, after the first Test ended on Sunday, November 16, the Indian cricket team is not ready to leave the Eden Gardens. The second and final Test is scheduled to be held in Guwahati, but still, the hosts are in Kolkata and are set to prepare on the same pitch at the Eden Gardens.

Shubman Gill likely to miss Guwahati Test
The Indian captain has been advised to rest completely, and the medical team will keep checking his condition over the next two days. Additionally, he is unlikely to fly to Guwahati with the rest of the squad, as the doctors have said that commercial flights are not safe for someone recovering from a neck issue.
This has put Gill’s availability for the second Test in serious jeopardy.
