The second Test of the series will be held from February 17 to 21 at Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium. Since December 2017, Delhi has hosted its first Test. India leads the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series 1-0.
    According to sources, the Indian cricket team usually stays at Taj Palace or ITC Maurya in Delhi, but this time they are staying at Hotel Leela in Karkarduma.
    This time, the team is staying in a different hotel in a different part of Delhi; the hotel is in Karkarduma because we were unable to secure a reservation at the ITC Maurya or Taj. This is due to the busy wedding season as well as the G20 summit A source provided information to ANI.
    Virat Kohli, the former captain of India, has decided to leave the team. Kohli, whose family members live in Delhi, decided to spend a few days at his home in Gurugram with his family.
    While India scored 400 runs against Australia in their first innings, Kohli struggled mightily with the bat, scoring only 12 runs off 26 balls.
