World Cup Fever
Nike, the official apparel sponsor for Team India, unveiled the team's new national attire for the ICC World Cup 2007 on Tuesday.
The kit was made public at a press conference, attended by some team members -- captain Rahul Dravid, Sachin Tendulkar, Sourav Ganguly, Dinesh Kaarthick, Zaheer Khan, Mahendra Singh Dhoni and S Sreesanth and officials of the Board of Control for Cricket in India.
Speaking at the unveiling, BCCI vice-president Lalit Modi said: "Great cricket is inspiring, on the street and in the stadium, and we are here today to celebrate the game that is India's passion.
The colours of the graphics on the new jersey take inspiration from the Indian flag and represent speed and motion.
Over the period of the match, this means greater comfort, as the players remain drier and less distracted. The engineered mesh at the back of the jersey and under the collar ensures better breath-ability in the high sweat zones
