“The new Team India uniform is light, comfortable and packed with innovation to help minimize distractions on the field of play and that’s critical when millimeters make a difference between a game winning innings or wicket,” said Dhoni. The Indian captain also added, “2015 is a massive year for Team India as the best teams in the world compete for cricket’s greatest prize.”
