IND vs AUS 2023: Australia’s flamboyant southpaw, David Warner, arrived in New Delhi with a heavy security cover after a disastrous showing in the first Test at Nagpur. The second of a four-match Test series between India, captained by Rohit Sharma, and Australia, ranked first in the world in that format, will take place at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Friday, February 17.
Australia will attempt to even the series after giving the host team a 0-1 lead in the first match as the two teams have already started their preparations in earnest. Heavy security was put in place for Australia opener David Warner in the capital city’s airport as the cricketers landed in Delhi for the second red-ball match. Warner posted a photo of himself leaving the airport grounds while being escorted by police on his Instagram account.

Warner captioned the picture, “Arrived Delhi.”
Australia receives a significant lift from Mitchell Starc before the test in Delhi.
The Australians have received a huge boost after losing the first Test completely, as quick Mitchell Starc is hopeful about playing in the Delhi Test. The talented pacer suffered injuries to his left middle finger while fielding against South Africa in December, forcing him to miss time.
“There are a few items to check, but everything is on track. I prefer to be a bit further up the road (in the recovery). But things are moving along – not as quickly as I would have liked, but medically speaking, everything is going according to plan. I’ll exert all effort to be completely available for choosing. The remaining members of the group involved then had a discussion,” NDTV cited Starc’s statement.
It is noteworthy that the two ferocious rivals are about to secure a spot in the championship match of the World Test Championship 2021–23 cycle. Australia’s wait to guarantee a spot in the finals of the international ICC event, though, continues as a result of India winning the opening match.
