New Delhi: India’s cricket team will kick off an exciting three-match One Day International (ODI) series against the West Indies on Thursday 27 July. The highly anticipated competition begins at the iconic Kensington Oval in Bridgetown, Barbados.
India to face West Indies in 3-ODI match
The stage is set for an exciting match-up, as both teams recently conducted a two-match test series. The Indian team showed their dominance with a 1-0 victory over the West Indies. The visiting team dominated the first Test with a commanding win by an innings and 141. However, the second and final Test ended in a draw, showing the resilience of the home side. The second and final Test match washed out due rain.
Chahal, Yadav feature in BCCI photo-shoot
But now the focus shifted to the white ball cricket. ‘Men in Blue’ had a photo-shot in which spin duo Yuzvendra Chahal and Kuldeep Yadav was featured. Both the spinners can be seen donning the new jersey, while new bright blue jersey catches the eye-balls of the Indian cricket fans. But some of the fans also highlighted the Dram 11 jersey ahead of the country’s name- India.
The Board of Cricket in India (BCCI) took on Twitter and dropped the India’s new ODI look. The Indian cricket board also captioned it as: “Don’t we just love the the duo.”

Test jersey also disappointed fans
Earlier, India captain Rohit Sharma posted a selfie in the jersey on his Instagram story. Multiple headshots of teammates wearing the new jerseys was also posted on Twitter, and the sight of the new Dream11 logo on the front of the jersey instead of where the team name used to be during the WTC Finals was a surprise to many.
Adidas and Dream11 are the main sponsors. Just last month, the Indian Cricket Board signed Adidas to a contract until 2028.
