The second Test match of the Border Gavaskar Trophy 2023 between India and Australia will begin on Friday, February 17 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. The hosts spun a web around Australia in the first game to register an innings and 132 runs victory. They are leading the four-match Test series 1-0.

Heading into the second game, Shreyas Iyer will return to the Indian team. His presence will boost the side, as the right-hander has a good test record, and is known to play spin well. He is likely to replace Suryakumar Yadav in the XI. On the other hand, Australia will also make a few changes to the team. Fast bowler Mitchell Starc might make a comeback from injury.

All-in-all, we are in for another exciting match in the Border Gavaskar Trophy 2023, at the Arun Jaitley Stadium.
