NEW DELHI: Kolkata Knight Riders head coach Chandrakant Pandit responded to criticisms of the Eden Gardens pitch and took responsibility for the team's failure to capitalise on their home advantage in the IPL this season. Pandit addressed Nitish Rana's previous comments and clarified the team's perspective, stating, "I think you people have misunderstood it. Home advantage means when we play at home, we would like to win."
Pandit dismissed the notion of blaming the pitches, saying, "It's not a question of pitches or anything else. I'm talking about winning the game, and it's unfortunate that in spite of having home advantage, we have not been able to win many games that we played here."
