In a thrilling match between India and Pakistan in the ODI World Cup 2023, a rather unusual incident involving India’s star player, Virat Kohli, caught the attention of cricket enthusiasts. Kohli made an unintentional fashion blunder as he took to the field, a moment that quickly went viral on social media. He appeared on the field wearing the old Team India jersey, which differs from the new one by the design of the shoulder stripes.
Taking the matter to X (formerly known as Twitter), a fan Mufaddal Vohra wrote, “Virat Kohli by mistake comes on the field by wearing the white stripes jersey instead of the tricolour one.”

The new jersey for Team India players features a tricolor stripe on the shoulder, while the old jersey has three white stripes. This difference was immediately noticed by Kohli himself, and he was seen pointing at his jersey while fielding during the match. The moment was captured on camera and swiftly circulated on social media, amusing fans and cricket enthusiasts alike.
In terms of the match, India won the toss and opted to bowl first. There was a notable change in the Indian lineup for this game, with young opening batsman Shubman Gill making a return to the team. In the previous match, Ishan Kishan was omitted from the playing XI, and Gill was brought back into the side. The match promises to be a closely contested encounter between two of cricket’s fiercest rivals, and fans are eagerly following every moment of the action.
