The capital city witnesses oppressive heat during the day, but becomes cooler by night. And like any other day, yesterday was very hot and humid too. The Aussies got a taste of Dilli ki garmi when they arrived for their opening ceremony parade.

After a while, most of the Aussies' jackets were off and their trousers folded to the knees to make way for any ventilation available.
