India's Tour Of Australia 2020-21: Cricket Australia Unveil New Jersey For The T20I Series

Cricket Australia (CA), on Wednesday, unveiled a new jersey for the Australian Cricket Team that they will don in the upcoming T20I series against India. The India National Cricket Team is designated to tour Australia for a three-match ODI series, three-match T20I series, and a four-match Test series.

Recently, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI), announced the squads for the tour of Australia. Controversies erupted in massive numbers when the team was announced as the Indian limited-overs vice-captain, Rohit Sharma, was not given a place in either of the squads. The BCCI informed that he isn’t match fit but Rohit was seen playing for Mumbai Indians in IPL 2020.

Later, Rohit was added to the Test squad after former cricketers and fans created a lot of ruckus on his unavailability in the national squads.
