Virat Kohli: The Indian cricket team had to change their hotel from Taj Palace or ITC Maurya to Hotel Leela near Noida due to the G20 Summit and marriage season. Most five-star hotels in the capital were already booked, leading to the last-minute change in accommodation. The second Test match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy will take place at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi from February 17 to 21.
