About the match
Eden Gardens for the IPL Final — the BCCI's hosting cycle put it back at the spiritual home of Indian cricket for 2026, and on a Sunday night with the Hooghly humidity sitting heavy, the place becomes a cauldron. The Final is the most-watched single sporting event in India each year (300m+ viewers domestically), and TNT Sports holds the UK pay-TV rights through 2027 in a deal worth a small fortune. Whichever side reaches it will have either earned it the easy way (top two, one knockout) or the hard way (three knockouts in five days). Carry-over momentum versus rest is the perennial debate. Form usually wins; legs rarely do.
