Arun Jaitley Stadium Delhi Pitch Report For World Cup 2023:

The pitches in Arun Jaitley Stadium of Delhi have turned substantially slower over the last few years. The surface in Delhi has assisted bowlers, especially spinners, big time in recent white-ball fixtures. However, considering that ICC had a major influence on the type of pitches made for the World Cup games, there might be an extra bit of purchase on offer for batters in Delhi, this time around.
