The ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024, co-hosted by the West Indies and the USA, is getting closer, and the excitement is building. South Africa and New Zealand, two of the tournament’s favourites, have recently unveiled their brand new jerseys, generating a buzz among fans.

Proteas Go Bold with Yellow

South Africa’s jersey, revealed on Sunday, features a bold yellow base colour. The national flag takes centre stage on the shoulder, proudly displaying the country’s colours. The King Protea, South Africa’s iconic national flower, also finds a prominent spot on the shirt, adding a touch of local flavour.

South Africa will be looking to bounce back after a disappointing T20 World Cup 2023 campaign where they were knocked out in the group stage. They are placed in Group D alongside Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Netherlands and Nepal. Their T20 WC 2024 journey begins on June 3 with a clash against Sri Lanka.

Black Caps Embrace the Past

New Zealand Cricket (NZC) unveiled their men’s team’s jersey on Monday, taking fans on a nostalgic trip with a design reminiscent of their 1990s kits. The official NZC Twitter handle announced the jersey’s arrival with the tweet, “The team’s kit for the 2024 @T20WorldCup Available at the NZC store from tomorrow. #T20WorldCup”.

Several key players, including Tim Southee, James Neesham, Ish Sodhi and Michael Bracewell were featured sporting the new jersey.

New Zealand finished runners-up in the 2021 T20 World Cup held in the UAE, falling short to Australia in the final. They will be hoping to go one step further this time around. In Group C of T20 WC 2024, they will face off against West Indies, Afghanistan, Papua New Guinea and Uganda. Their opening match is set for June 7 against Afghanistan.
