Arun Jaitley Stadium, New Delhi Pitch Report

The Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi is known to assist spinners, especially during the first half of the match. The pitch here, however, gets better for the batters as the match progresses. There has to be a conscious decision while looking for big shots and if mishit it will backfire and cost them the batting unit their crucial wickets.
