In a historic turn of events, team India will wear an away jersey for the first time in its cricketing history during India vs England game in ICC Cricket World Cup 2019. The Indian cricket team, which usually sports a royal blue jersey, was instructed by the International Cricket Council (ICC) to wear an away jersey for its CWC 2019 match against hosts England on June 30 (Sunday). This was because both teams use blue-coloured kits, which might make it difficult in distinguishing the players of each team. Meanwhile, Social media, which has for long tried guessing the exact design and colour of India’s away jersey couldn’t hide its excitement and emotions.

The official away jersey for Team India was launched on June 28 (Friday) by Nike, which is the kit sponsor of the Indian cricket team. "The new total orange and blue coloured Away Kits also moves away from a traditional silhouette to using new innovative cut lines alongside dynamic material combinations to emphasize a Multi-dimensional Slash Design and Movement approach,” said the popular sports apparel giants.

Orange Or Saffron; Saffron Or Orange?
That will looking striking on a lush green field.😎
And no this isnt saffron., its orange.
The colour scheme seems to inspired from the classic black and orange. Just the black replaced with deep blue. 👍👍
Unnecessary controversy

The away jersey has not been short of controversy even before it was launched. This is also the first time team India will be wearing an away jersey. Meanwhile, India remains the only team unbeaten in the CWC 2019 so far. The men in blue - soon to be men in orange - have won five of their six matches, while another game against New Zealand was abandoned due to rain.
