After India's heroics in the first Test against West Indies at the Narendra Modi Stadium, the caravan now moves onto the 2nd and final Test of the series, where the Shubman Gill-led side will lock horns against the visitors in Delhi at the Arun Jaitley Stadium.
In the latest events, there are reports that ahead of the 2nd Test, India head coach Gautam Gambhir, who hails from Delhi, is all set to host the Indian team for a dinner at his residence. A report from the Tribune mentioned that the dinner will be held a couple of days before the Test match.

The report also added that Gambhir wants the dinner to be in an open space, and the event will be cancelled if the city witnesses rain in the coming days. Notably, the weather has changed drastically in Delhi in the last couple of days, and rain has hit the city on October 5 and 6, bringing a significant drop in the mercury levels.
Notably, it will be just the second match at Arun Jaitley Stadium for India since Gautam Gambhir took over as the head coach. Also, it is the first Test in Delhi under Gambhir's era, as the last time India played here was the T20I against Bangladesh in 2024.
