India cricketers' Asiad trip hits a wardrobe snag
New Delhi - The Indian men's cricket team is grappling with a wardrobe dilemma ahead of their departure for the Asian Games. The team is awaiting the right size cricket kits, causing a mix-up between the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) and the kit supplier JSW Inspire. The team is scheduled to leave for Japan early Sunday morning, wearing their standard kits for a one-off T20I match against Japan on September 22.
Following that, they will don the official Asian Games jersey for the competition, which commences on September 28. Most of the sizing issues have been resolved, but a few kits remain to be delivered to the team. The BCCI appears determined to ensure the team's comfort, having made its own hotel arrangements for the Asian Games, as the athletes faced delays in obtaining accommodations in Nagoya.
The Indian women's team, however, has been staying in accommodation provided by the IOA without any issues.
