Birmingham: Amidst the controversy back in India over the saffron jersey that Virat Kohli & Co sported as part of their away kit against England during yesterday's World Cup match, senior Congress leader Shashi Tharoor found nothing controversial about it.

The Congress and Samajwadi Party (SP) objected to the use of the saffron-coloured jersey, referring it to be the colour of the ruling BJP government. Tharoor is here to make a couple of speeches at the Bradford Literary Festival.
