The T20 World Cup 2024 has seen New Zealand unveil their new jersey, a departure from the traditional black color they are known for. This marks a return to their 1999 aquamarine jersey, with the iconic silver fern design but without black accents on the collar and border.
Since 1999, black has been a prominent feature in New Zealand’s limited-over cricket attire. However, for the T20 World Cup 2024, the team has opted for a lighter hue. This change has sparked mixed reactions among fans and netizens, with some expressing shock and disappointment at the absence of black in the new jersey, while others have appreciated the throwback to their early years as the Black Caps.
The decision to exclude black from their jersey may be seen as a way to pay homage to their past while still maintaining a fresh look for their upcoming tournament. Fans eagerly await to see how they will perform in their new look during the T20 World Cup 2024.
