IND vs AUS 2023: Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi Pitch Report And Weather Conditions

After the first Test ended in a positive result for the Indians in Nagpur, the Border Gavaskar Trophy would continue in the capital city of India – Delhi. The game would start on February 17th. Here, we look at the pitch report of Arun Jaitley Stadium and the weather conditions in Delhi for IND vs AUS 2023.

There has been a lot of talk about the conditions of the pitch in the ongoing series. While Nagpur actually played out well, it needs to be seen how the pitch in Delhi would behave. India could make a few changes for this Test. Shreyas Iyer will join the team in Delhi but is not sure if he is fit. If he does prove his fitness, he would replace Suryakumar Yadav. India might offer one last chance to KL Rahul to prove his credentials. Australia could also make a few changes and it would not be a surprise if David Warner gets dropped.
