“Similar to the recently launched ODI Kit, the away kit is designed to enhance dynamic movements and modern requirement of the sport and the athletes,” it added.
The International Cricket Council (ICC) had introduced the concept of away kits, similar to football, so as there aren’t any similarities in jersey colours between opposition teams. England and India have similar shades of blue jerseys and with England being the home team, India will have to wear the alternate kit on Sunday.
