(Photo Courtesy: IANS) Indian cricketers are likely wear orange jerseys in place of the blue jersey in some matches of World Cup 2019. The substitute jersey will be displayed during the course of the tournament. “The BCCI marketing team is still working on the design and the jersey will be unveiled very soon,” a BCCI source told PTI. The jersey, which will be predominantly orange with a tinge of blue, will be unveiled during the course of the tournament. ICC made it compulsory for teams to have different coloured jersey for all televised tournaments. According to ICC, the teams must mandatorily provide two different coloured kits, except for the host country who has a first choice in the choice of colour and may, if it chooses to do so, provide only one coloured kit to be worn in all matches throughout the event. Indians will use the orange jersey against England on June 30 at Edgbaston as their blue jersey clashes with the hosts. Similar conditions will arise as India faces Afghanistan and Sri Lanka. The notion of multiple uniforms has been inspired from club football in which players choose their colour on a home and away basis.
