He played well in the recent series against Bangladesh and England. He has smashed 7014 runs in 98 matches with highest 206 not out. So India may rely on these batsmen.

Australia will keep believe on Marnus Labuschagne and Steve Smith. They both have an excellent record against India and have experience of playing in the Indian subcontinent.

Ashwin has grabbed 457 wickets in 89 matches with an average of 24.30. At the turning surface of Arun Jaitely Stadium Ravindra Jadeja may also trouble Australia with his left arm spin.

Looking at the surface in Delhi, Nathan Lyon and Todd Murphy are expected to be reliable bowlers for Australia. Todd Murphy picked 7 wickets in the first test match. At Indian spin pitches Nathan Lyon is reliable spin bowler for Australia.
