IPL 2020 is done and dusted. The Indian Team has now embarked on nearly two-month-long Australia tour from Dubai in specially designed PPE kits on Wednesday night. The squad led by Virat Kohli is all set to play 3 T20Is, 3 ODIs, and 4 Tests.
The three ODIs will be played on November 27, 29, and December 2 at Sydney Cricket Ground and at the Manuka Oval in Canberra respectively. The first T20I will also be played in Canberra on December 4 and the rest two on December 6 and 8 at the Sydney Cricket Ground. The first Test set to be played under lights from December 17 to 21 at the Adelaide Oval.
However, there's a rumour floating about on social media that the Indian squad will be donning the retro jersey. According to a report in Outlook, Team India is reportedly set to sport a new jersey for the limited-overs games.
As the news caught air, cricket fans on Twitter went on a nostalgia drive.
