The new jersey blends a modern high-performance silhouette with bold, nostalgic design cues. Drawing inspiration from the iconic striped India jerseys of the 1990s, the kit introduces contemporary pattern innovation with a retro twist, while retaining the legendary neckline from the 2024 T20 World Cup-winning jersey, as per a press release.
Rohit said during the jersey unveil: "From cheering as a young fan to lifting trophies for the country, this game has given me memories for a lifetime. Now, as I step into a new chapter, the pride remains the same. This new Team India jersey reminds us that whether you're in the stands or on the field, we all wear the same colours and believe in the same dream for India."
India, placed in Group A alongside Pakistan, the USA, the Netherlands and Namibia, will start their campaign against the USA on February 7 next year. The tournament will be co-hosted by India and Sri Lanka.
India are two-time T20I WC champions, having won the inaugural title way back in 2007 and beating the Proteas by six runs in a nail-biting final, which saw Virat Kohli shining with a half-century in his final T20I appearance and Jasprit Bumrah, Hardik Pandya, and Arshdeep Singh unleashing a scary pace choke in the death overs on the Proteas. To top it all off, Suryakumar Yadav took a remarkable catch at long-off to remove David Miller in the final over, bowled by Pandya, sealing the match for India and ending India's trophy drought since the 2013 ICC Champions Trophy.
