The preparations for the match are getting completed on war footing too. The first T20 between India and South is set to be a sell-out event with 94 per cent of tickets already sold at the 35,000 capacity Arun Jaitley stadium. Here we are giving the pitch report of Delhi Cricket Stadium and T20 records of ground.

KL Rahul’s men will be eager to put on a dominant performance. Meanwhile, South Africa has a plethora of in-form campaigners, including Quinton de Kock, David Miller, and Kagiso Rabada, to name a few.

This is the first time since 2019 that an international match is being played in Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi.

A whopping 94% of the tickets have been sold. There are approximately 400-500 tickets remaining “DDCA joint secretary Rajan Manchanda stated. “Approximately 27,000 tickets were made available for purchase. In an effort to improve the spectator experience, elderly people will be able to enter the stadium via golf cart “he said.

So the DDCA is fully prepared for the big day. Along with all these, let’s take a look at India’s T20I records at the Arun Jaitley Stadium Delhi, boundary dimensions, pitch report and the weather forecast on the India vs South Africa match day.

Arun Jaitely Stadium details

Boundary dimensions: 65-68 meters across the four sides of the stadium.

Stadium capacity: 35,000

Host Association: Delhi & Districts CA

Established: 1883

Stadium Address: Feroz Shah Kotla, Bahadur Shah Zafar Marg, New Delhi.

Arun Jaitely Stadium Delhi pitch report

The pitch at Arun Jaitely Stadium in New Delhi, also known as Ferozeshah Kotla, is generally slower. However, the boundaries are small, and the outfield is frequently fast. So, whichever team gets to bat first will be compelled to post a total in the vicinity of 170 and contest the chasing side. Spinners may be able to take advantage of the pitch’s slowness.

Highest and lowest scores at this venue in T20Is

India holds the record for the highest T20I score at Arun Jaitley Stadium (202/3 vs NZ, 2017). Both Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan scored 80 each. Later, India restricted the visitors to 149/8, courtesy of spinners Axar Patel (2/20) and Yuzvendra Chahal (2/26). Meanwhile, Sri Lanka has the lowest total at this venue (120 vs SA, 2016). Hashim Amla (56*) top-scored for SA.
