Indian captain Virat Kohli seems to really love the idea. He said during the kit reveal conference,
I like it, the contrast is nice. It’s a nice change for one game. I don’t think permanently we’ll be heading in that direction, blue has always been our color & we’re very proud to wear it but looking at the occasion, it’s a smart kit!
On the other hand, Chris Woakes has shared in a tweet that they will be playing with a special bat during the match. He also thanked everyone who purchased these bat to support UNICEF.
