Kohli and Co. don India’s new ODI jersey
Mumbai, Jan. 12: The Indian cricket team fans received some good news ahead of the ODI series against England after BCCI launched Team India’s new ODI jersey on Thursday.
The Team India jerseys have always enjoyed a good reception amongst its fans and the new kit promises to do the same.
“We have always been told to treat life and sport differently, which is very wrong. On the field, we are encouraged to take risks but then in life you need to be safe! It’s a huge gap that needs to be bridged. Cricket has taught me everything I know about life. I truly believe that sport helps shape your character as an individual; all you need is to believe in yourself. The self-belief that I learnt on the field makes me believe that I can accomplish anything on or off the field,” the BCCI media release quoted Indian skipper Virat Kohli as saying.
“The key feature in the new kit includes ‘4D Quickness’. This feature provides multi-directional and multi-dimensional stretch for quickness along with tuned breathability that helps with temperature regulation to keep athletes cool,” according to BCCI.
MS Dhoni, who powered India to three ICC trophy triumphs and who recently stepped down from India’s limited-overs captaincy, said, “The game has been evolving over the years and the need to have kits that are designed to suit the modern game has always been the priority for the team management and Nike. Features like the 4D quickness and Zero distractions will definitely help the team on the field.”
