India will sport an orange jersey in the upcoming World Cup 2019 match against England at Edgbaston in Birmingham on Sunday.

This will be the first time that India will be seen wearing two different jerseys in the quadrennial event after the ICC introduced the concept of home and away 'jerseys' for this year's World Cup.

India will sport a new jersey against England.

 

According to the ICC rulebook: "For televised ICC events all participating teams will be required to provide for two different coloured kits, except for the host country who has preference in the choice of colour and may, if it chooses to do so, provide only one coloured kit to be worn in all matches throughout the event. In advance of the event the teams will be notified which coloured kit will be worn in each match."
