Kolkata’s Eden Gardens will take center stage today as Team India and South Africa continue their preparations for the upcoming Test match. Team India is scheduled to hit the nets at 9:30 am, while the South African squad will begin their practice session at 1:30 pm. Cricket fans in Bengal are eagerly awaiting the much-anticipated clash, which promises intense on-field action in the coming days.
Weather-wise, Bengal is expected to enjoy a pleasant day with clear skies and sunshine. Temperatures are likely to hover around a high of 28°C and dip to a cool 17°C by evening — ideal conditions for both cricket and outdoor activities.
Meanwhile, the cultural spotlight will also shine on the final day of the 31st Kolkata International Film Festival (KIFF). The festival concludes today with the screening of Beyond Borders: Displacement, Migration, Madaniya, directed by Moha.ed Subahi. The film, which explores themes of identity and movement across boundaries, serves as a fitting finale to Bengal’s week-long cinematic celebration.
From sports excitement at Eden Gardens to the artistic flair at KIFF, Bengal is all set for a vibrant day of action and culture.
