The New Zealand Cricket team will be wearing retro biege-coloured jerseys against Australia later this week.
The Australians have traveled to their neighbouring country, New Zealand to play a 5-match T20I series. The series will be a major factor both teams for their preparation ahead of the ICC T20 World Cup 2021 scheduled in the later half of the year in India.
While these two teams had opted for the retro jerseys in an ODI series conducted just before the COVID-19 pandemic halted sports around the world. Only one game of the series was possible at the Sydney Cricket Ground, which was played behind closed doors.
