India vs West Indies 2nd Test Preview
After cruising to a three-day win in Ahmedabad, Team India is ready to lock horns with West Indies once again — this time in New Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium. With confidence sky-high and home conditions in their favor, Shubman Gill’s men are eyeing a clean 2-0 sweep in this two-match Test series.
West Indies, on the other hand, are still searching for answers. Their batters struggled badly against India’s spin attack in the first Test, and unless they bring a more disciplined approach, it could be another short contest.

Pitch Report: Black Soil, Spin to Dominate Later
The pitch at the Arun Jaitley Stadium is expected to behave much like the one in Ahmedabad. It offers decent bounce and value for shots early on, but as the game progresses, the black-soil surface will start favoring spinners.
Expect India’s spin duo to come into play from Day 3, making life difficult for the West Indies middle order.
Team News: Minor Changes Possible
India might go with the same playing XI but could slightly tweak the batting order. There’s talk of promoting all-rounder Nitish Kumar Reddy up the order to give him more time in the middle — a smart move considering India’s long-term vision for a seam-bowling all-rounder on overseas tours.
West Indies, meanwhile, are likely to stick with Roston Chase’s leadership and the same lineup, hoping their batters can finally stand tall against the relentless Indian attack.

What to Expect
India’s dominance looks set to continue unless West Indies pulls off something extraordinary. With the black-soil pitch favoring spin and the home team’s top order in good form, another three-day finish wouldn’t be surprising.
For fans, though, it’s another chance to see India’s next-gen stars — from Shubman Gill to Yashasvi Jaiswal — showcase their Test brilliance.
