4. Arun Jaitley Stadium Pitch report

This will be a reasonable pitch to bat on and there could be some dew factor too, as the teams might just prefer to chase here. The boundaries here are not very large and the outfield is pretty quick as well. The spinners used to get some assistance here but the pitch has changed its nature in the last couple of years.

5 New Delhi weather forecast

The temperature in New Delhi is set at 21 degrees with a 1% chance of thunder storms and there could be 38 per cent cloud cover too. But there could be no threat to the match, even though it has been raining on and off in New Delhi for the past couple of days. The weather might just ease out.
