In a groundbreaking move that resonates with inclusivity and empowerment, the Mumbai Indians have unveiled their new jersey for the upcoming Women’s Premier League 2024. This latest addition to the MI merchandise showcases a captivating design and underscores the franchise’s commitment to fostering the growth and recognition of women in cricket.
The jersey, a testament to the team’s dedication to gender equality in sports, not only exudes style but also encapsulates the essence of WPL, a platform where talent, passion, and determination converge to redefine the landscape of women’s cricket.
Design of Mumbai Indians’ new jersey
Drawing inspiration from the resplendent plumage of the peacock, the new MI kit is crafted under the visionary guidance of ace designer Monisha Jaising. The jersey’s print mirrors the distinct shades of blue found on the neck and breast feathers of the peacock, showcasing a captivating gradient pattern that pays homage to the natural geometry and colour gradients of these magnificent birds.
The coral-peach hue, derived from the feather’s central stem in the coral-brown palette, adds a touch of vibrancy and sophistication to the ensemble. This thoughtfully designed jersey is set to debut as the MI step onto the field for the inaugural match of the second season of the WPL against the Delhi Capitals on February 23.
