Putting all speculation at rest, Cricket Association of Bengal president Jagmohan Dalmiya said Eden Gardens will host all seven home matches of Kolkata Knight Riders [ Images ] in Indian Premier League [ Images ] this season.

Dalmiya said he had been informed of the decision by KKR co-promoter Jay Mehta on Friday.

"There was speculation that this year two matches of the Kolkata Knight Riders may be shifted to Cuttack. We had informed KKR that a decision in this regard would have to be taken soon because the matches start from April 10 and the time at our disposal was rather short," Dalmiya said in a statement.

"On behalf of CAB, I have assured KKR of our best cooperation," Dalmiya added.
