The 2019 ICC World Cup is around the corner which is scheduled to start from May 30 in England and Wales. Meanwhile, all the teams nearly decided their squads for the tournament. To keep the mega event in mind, some of the teams have launched their new jerseys and Afghanistan also have unveiled their new jerseys. However, they have kept the blue colour in the jersey and launched two designs, one for the matching kit and the other one for training. Moreover, their main kit is nearly similar to their ODI kit; which they used to wear so far.

Their training kit has the colour of black and white with the pattern on the shoulder. The colours represent the colours of their national flag. With this, they have black coloured trouser pants. Along with this, their alternate jersey has a lot of red colour on the sides, while blue presents in the centre. On the other hand, Amul, the Indian Dairy giants has been announced as the Afghanistan team’s sponsors for the upcoming mega event. The logo of brand Amul will be there in their jersey.
