The Tweet received a lot of reactions wherein the fans commented that they were hoping that the original light blue color jersey will make a comeback for the marquee event. MPL sports will sponsor team India’s jersey for the high-profile ICC tournament.

The Indian team had shifted to the dark blue retro jersey during the white-ball series against Australia in 2020. The men in blue will be commencing their T20 World Cup campaign with a couple of warm-up matches against England and Australia on 18 and 20. The team will then lock horns with arch-rivals Pakistan for their opening game of the tournament.

Recently, Virat Kohli announced that he will be resigning from the captaincy of Team India after the upcoming T20 World Cup. A few days later he also announced that this will be his last year as RCB’s captain and after this season he will be playing with the franchise as a player for the franchise.

India’s head coach Ravi Shastri is also likely to make way for some other candidate after the World Cup. Bowling coach B Arun and fielding coach R Sridhar would also probably be on their last assignment with the Indian team.  Whereas on the other hand, MS Dhoni will be performing the role of Team India’s mentor for the mega event. The former skipper has had a successful run with the team as he had led the Indian team to all the three ICC trophies glory. His experience is expected to help the Virat Kohli-led side to make a greater impact in the tournament.
