Team India has officially revealed their jersey for the highly anticipated ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024. Set to kick off from June 1st to the 29th, the tournament will be hosted across the United States of America and the Caribbean. In Group A, India finds themselves alongside perennial rivals Pakistan, co-hosts USA, as well as Ireland and Canada.
The Indian team will play all their group-stage matches in the USA, with the initial three games scheduled in New York and the final group game in Lauderhill. With the countdown to the T20 World Cup ticking away, India’s jersey for the event has been unveiled.
The iconic blue dominates the attire, complemented by saffron sleeves and the traditional white Adidas stripes adorning the shoulders. Interestingly, unlike the ODI World Cup jersey which sported tri-color stripes, this design opts for a more streamlined look.
