The Indian cricket team has been in coloured clothing for almost 30 years now. Every few years, the jersey has changed or been modified. From ridiculous fashion disasters to stylish designs, the cricketers have donned the colours with pride and honour. Let's have a look at how India's ODI jersey has evolved over the years:

1. The late 1980s

Back when things were plain and simple. No team name, no sponsors and no brand. Just the colours!

5. 1996

During this World Cup, every country had a similar jersey. Each country had its own colour but there was a colourful band across the chest and back, signifying the participation of the other teams at the tournament.

As the BCCI grew stronger, so did the presence of its logo on the Indian jersey. The 1997 jersey has a very prominent BCCI logo from the left to the center in dark blue.
