The sports giants, Nike has launched its brand new jersey for the India National Cricket Team for the upcoming ICC World Cup 2019. Virat Kohli-led team will be seen donning the new jersey in the forthcoming ODI showpiece, set to be played in England and Wales. The new stylish Indian jersey was launched in Hyderabad, where India’s first ODI against Australia will take place.

Meanwhile, the Indian team is in fine form despite losing the T20I series against Australia. The Men in Blue had recently won the ODI series against Australia in Australia by 2-1. MS Dhoni had returned back to form as the talisman batsman had scored 193 runs in the series. Dhoni scored three back to back half-centuries in the three-match series. The linchpin was awarded the Man of the series.

The new jersey is classy.

However, India then went on to lose the T20I series against New Zealand by 2-1 after losing the T20I series against Australia by 2-0. Thus, India will like to get back to winning ways.
