Co-ordinates of India's three World Cup triumph venues printed on new jersey

Speaking about what the Indian jersey reminds him off, former India captain Dhoni said, "It always reminds me of the great legacy that we have got. It's not only that. Playing each and every bilateral series, reaching No 1 across formats, all these are motivational stuff."

Indian team's new 2019 World Cup jersey was launched by sporting apparel giants Nike in the presence of former captain Dhoni, current skipper Virat Kohli, his Test deputy Ajinkya Rahane and youngster Prithvi Shaw.

A very fascinating addition to India’s new kit is that the co-ordinates of the venues of team India’s previous three World Cup (T201 and ODI) triumphs are inscribed just below the collar at the back of the jersey. The jersey includes dates and totals India scored in the three finals.

Not only that, it is for the first time, three stars depicting India’s CWC victories are inscribed on the inside and can be seen at the back of the jersey.

Interesting !!

"It feels good to always get into past a bit. During the first World Cup in 1983, we were very young. Later, saw videos of how everyone celebrated. In 2007, we won World T20. So we are good at it (World titles). It's good that we carried that legacy forward and hand it over to the future generations," the eldest statesman of Team India said.

"Hopefully, the (new) jersey becomes a part of a lot of World Cups but it is the consistency that we are really proud of," Dhoni added.

Star player and current skipper Virat Kohli too shared a message for all aspiring India stars.

"There is certain importance and pride attached to this jersey. Everyone needs to realise that. You have to strive for excellence and show that you are obsessed to win every minute of the game. That's how you get that jersey," said Kohli.
