Why is Team India wearing blue color jerseys only? The mystery is hidden in the tricolor of the country
The Indian team’s World Cup 2019 jersey was launched on Friday and former captain MS Doni, current captain Virat Kohli, Test vice captain Ajinkya Rahane and young batsman Prithvi Shaw were also present on the occasion. Team India’s jersey is very special and stylish.
But do you know why Team India’s jersey is the color blue? For the past 44 years, the design, pattern, material and many more of this ‘Men in Blue’ jersey have changed many times but its color remains blue.
Team India’s jerseys could be painted in one of three colors in the country’s tricolor, but for some reason the blue color was considered more noble.
In fact, the color of saffron points to a political party in the country. That’s why Team India’s jersey was not given this color. The test match jersey was already white in tow. So it doesn’t even matter the color.
The color of the national flag of Pakistan was green in India’s neighboring country. Because of this, the color of Team India’s jersey could not be determined green. Now let us tell you how Team India’s jersey color blue was finally decided.
Blue is the color of the Ashoka Chakra with 24 figures in the national flag of India. This is why Team India has agreed to keep the color of the jersey in blue and it is the same color of the jersey till date.
