The Indian cricket team, meanwhile, will be wearing a newly-designed retro jersey in the limited series against Australia. The new kit is a throwback to the jersey India wore at the 1992 cricket World Cup. India announced the decision to wear the retro kit after announcing a change in the sponsors with BYJU’S replacing apparel giant Nike as the principal jersey sponsor from this series.

Natarajan is expected to get playing time in the three-match T20I series with India looking to manage the workloads of both Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami keeping the Test and ODI series in mind. He will look to impress everyone with a good show when he makes his debut. The T20I series will start from December 4 after the conclusion of the ODI series, which begins this Friday.
