The Indian cricket team jersey for the 2024 T20 World Cup was launched on Tuesday. The jersey has seen quite a change from the jersey that the Rohit Sharma-led side wore at the 2023 ODI World Cup. This time the blue and orange hue are quite prominent. Rohit Sharma and his men will wear the jersey as they aim to break India’s drought at ICC events. India last won an ICC Trophy in 2013 when MS Dhoni was still the captain. Since then, India have come close but failed to win the ODI World Cup, the T20 World Cup, the Champions Trophy and the World Test Championship.
According to Adidas’ official site, the price of the jersey is Rs 5999 for regular size.
Interestingly, at lesser price one can go from Delhi to Goa this month. Several prominent travel booking sites showed the price of Delhi-Goa tickets to be below Rs 5500 in the next one month.
Sportswear brand Adidas took to social media to provide a sneak peek into the official jersey and the video featured Indian cricket team skipper Rohit Sharma along with his teammates – Kuldeep Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja. There were rumours about a possible leak in connection to the jersey design but the fans on social media were thrilled by the launch and most of them expressed their anticipation for the tournament.
India’s squad for T20 World Cup 2024: Rohit Sharma (C), Hardik Pandya (VC), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant, Sanju Samson, Shivam Dube, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal, Arshdeep Singh, Mohammed Siraj, Jasprit Bumrah.
Reserves:Shubman Gill, Rinku Singh, Khaleel Ahmed, Avesh Khan
