Why South Africa Will Wear Pink Jersey In IND vs SA 1st ODI At Johannesburg

KL Rahul-led team India will square off against South Africa on December 16 at the New Wanderers Stadium in Johannesburg.

Notably, South Africa will be donning a pink jersey for Sunday's IND vs SA 1st ODI, instead of their regular green one.

This alteration in South Africa's jersey color is in line with their tradition of hosting Pink Day ODIs.

By donning the pink jerseys in 'Pink Day ODIs', the Proteas demonstrate their backing for breast cancer education, awareness, research and detection.

Cricket South Africa also encourages the local community to engage in this campaign by wearing pink shirts and purchasing tickets.

The entire earnings from IND vs SA 1st ODI match will be allocated to support initiatives associated with breast cancer.
