After all, why are there no crowds of fans in Eden Gardens Stadium?
The reason why the fans did not reach the match at the Eden Gardens Stadium in Kolkata, the reason is not clear yet. But it is believed that Kolkata Knight Riders and Bengal Cricket Association have increased the price of tickets, and fans have boycotted the match in protest. Fans are criticizing KKR and Cab through social media.
So, Eden Gardens (KKR) Increased The Price of Tickets & The Result is Half Empty Eden Gardens. This is how you respond
Don’t go to the stadium trust of these exuberant price, let them suffer & them’ll drop the price eventually.
