With the T20 World Cup 2024 less than a month away from its commencement, the Indian cricket team's jersey has reportedly been 'leaked' on social media. Pictures of India's new kit for the global event are spreading like wildfire on social media. The leaked images show that the jersey has tri-colour stripes on a v-shaped neck. On the saffron sleeves, the traditional three stripes of sports apparel giant Adidas can be seen. It isn't the first time that Team India's new kit has been 'leaked' on social media, but it's a big blow as such releases are usually done through formal channels.
Here's the 'leaked' picture of Team India's new jersey for the T20 World Cup 2024:

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) had recently confirmed the 15-man squad for the T20 World Cup 2024, while also naming 4 reserves who will travel with the side.
The likes of Rishabh Pant, Sanju Samson, Shivam Dube and Yuzvendra Chahal made a highly-anticipated return to the Indian team while prominent stars like KL Rahul, Shreyas Iyer, Shubman Gill were snubbed in the 15-man roster. Rinku Singh was arguably the biggest casualty as the BCCI selection committee finalised the squad.
India only picked three seamers, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj and Arshdeep Singh for the mega event while handing a call-up to four spinners, namely Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Yuzvendra Chahal and Kuldeep Yadav.
India captain Rohit Sharma, in a press conference later, explained the decision to pick 4 spinners in the squad while snubbing the likes of Shubman, Rinku and a few others.
India squad: Rohit Sharma (c), Hardik Pandya (vc), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav, Rishabh Pant (wk), Sanju Samson (wk), Shivam Dube, Ravindra Jadeja, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Yuzvendra Chahal, Arshdeep Singh, Jasprit Bumrah, Mohd. Siraj
Reserves: Shubman Gill, Rinku Singh, Khaleel Ahmed and Avesh Khan
