The first Test of the epic Border-Gavaskar Trophy at Nagpur saw spinners prevailing chiefly. As the pitch at Arun Jaitley Stadium is also spin-friendly, the outcome of the upcoming Test is speculated to be nearly similar. The spin specialist Ravichandran Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja and Australian Debutant Todd Murphy all had a roll as the first Test saw three fifers apiece from them. The top-order batting of both India and Australia failed to deliver in the first Test and will need to show some composure in the upcoming fixture to make the contest even more rip-roaring with high scoring from both sides.
Owing to his bad record in the sub-continent, the in-form left-handed batter Travis Head was benched in the first Test at Nagpur. The decision not to include him was later backlashed by many experts following Australia's poor performance in the first Test. The team management have confirmed his comeback into the playing XI along with the veteran pacer Mitchell Starc in the second Test. Their inclusion in the team will be a big boost to Australia as they head to fire back in the battle at Delhi from Friday.
