BCCI earlier released a statement this month that the Indian team is going to sport a new jersey in the upcoming T20Is against Australia and South Africa and the T20I World Cup 2022, which is scheduled to take place in October and November in Australia. MPL Sports, the official jersey and kit partner for the Indian cricket team, then revealed the colour of the collar of the Indian jersey. The light blue colour of the collar will remind Indian fans of India’s jersey in the 2011 World Cup victory.
The official launch event for the new jersey was live streamed on the Insta handle of MPL Sports. It began at 8 PM at Bandstand Promenade in Mumbai.
The original statement about the new jersey for the Indian team came into the limelight on 15th September 2022. MPL Sports confirmed on 16th September 2022 that the Indian team is getting a completely new jersey for the upcoming T20Is and World Cup, and the launch event will take place on 18th September 20222.
