It's a new year and the new year has seen the Indian limited-overs cricket team get a new skipper. Well, the new captain Virat Kohli and his boys will now be seen in new outfits.
Team India will be seen in their new striking ODI kit when they take the field against England in the first one-dayer at the MCA stadium in Pune on Sunday.
Nike had, in January 2015, unveiled a new ODI jersey for the Indian team ahead of their one-day international triangular series in Australia. That lightweight kit -- each jersey and bottom -- was made out of an average of 33 recycled plastic bottles.
