IPL: 12 New introductions in twelve years of the league

4) Different jerseys for home and away games

The Bengaluru franchise, Royal Challengers Bangalore is the only team which has introduced a new trend of donning different jerseys when playing at home and while playing away from home. It was a motive from the big five European football leagues. According to the FIFA rule book, it is always mandatory for a visiting team to wear an alternate jersey to prevent from confusion to the officials, players and spectators.

In IPL 9 i.e.. 2016 season, Royal Challengers Bangalore had unveiled two different colours of their jersey. Their home kit displays, black on shoulders and chest while from chest to bottom the jersey shines in red. As red being RCB’s traditional colour they wanted it to glimmer it in M Chinnaswamy. The away kit is nothing but opposite to the home jersey.
