The launching of India's new kit just weeks before the tournament has sparked off some confusion over whether India will actually be wearing these colours in the forthcoming World Cup or not. To cut a long story short: the kit that India will be wearing in the World Cup will be identical to the one that was launched yesterday, in every aspect other than the placement of the various logos on the shirt.

In ICC events, such as the World Cup and the Champions Trophy, the kits of all teams bear the tournament logo and branding on the chest. This means that, in India's case, the Sahara logo, which is currently on the front of the shirt, will go to the leading arm, and the Nike logo, which is on the right side of the chest, will go to the non-leading arm. The logo of the Board of Control for Cricket in India, which is currently on the left side of the chest, will stay right where it is.
