The Board of Control for Cricket in India revealed the new T20I jersey for Team India on Sunday (BCCI). The new jersey includes vivid azure tones on the front and dark royal blue tones on the sleeves. The jersey will make its debut during the next three-match T20I series against Australia, which begins on September 20.

The national team did not introduce the team jersey for the first time in the history of Indian cricket. Instead, the Mumbai U-19 women’s cricket team and a few superfans unveiled the brand-new team uniform. The garment, known as the ‘One Blue Jersey,’ comes in several blue tones.
