KOLKATA: Kolkata’s loss could well be Guwahati’s gain. The Kolkata Knight Riders’ home match against Lucknow Super Giants on April 6 is all set to move from the Eden Gardens to Guwahati after Kolkata Police expressed its inability to provide security for the Indian Premier League (IPL) contest as it coincides with ‘Ram Navami’ celebrations.
No workable solution was arrived at in spite of Cricket Association of Bengal's (CAB) repeated discussions with the local administration. The BCCI is also finding it difficult to reschedule the fixture due to packed IPL calendar.
