Watch: India’s new T20I jersey unveiled in Dharamsala ahead of T20 World Cup 2024

Sportswear giant and official kit sponsors of the Indian cricket team, Adidas, on Monday unveiled the senior men’s team’s new T20I jersey. The sportswear manufacturer took to social media to share a video from the unveiling from Dharamsala. In the video, India captain Rohit Sharma, Ravindra Jadeja and Kuldeep Yadav can be seen watching a helicopter soaring into the sky with the new India kit.

The new kit, as seen in the video, has a healthy mix of blue and orange. The shoulders of the shirt are in orange while the remaining part is blue. There are two orange stripes running down parallelly to the waist. The trademark three stripes of Adidas are in white in the new Indian T20I jersey.

It remains to seen if India will use the new jersey in the T20 World Cup. However, the timing of the revelation of the new kit by Adidas suggests that Rohit Sharma and his men will be wearing the orange and blue India jersey in the showpiece event, starting June 2 in the USA and the West Indies.

Notably, Adidas came on board as India’s official kit sponsor in May 2023. The sportswear giants designed the kit for the World Test Championship final and the ODI World Cup last year. India’s jersey for the ODI World Cup was a hit amongst fans as shirt sales spiked before the showpiece event, which was hosted by India.

Meanwhile, fans also shared photos of the rumoured new kit on social media as speculation about the T20 World Cup jersey intensified in the lead-up to the tournament.
