The International Cricket Council (ICC) should sort out the confusing situation of colored uniforms clashing in one-day internationals. It’s ridiculous to see Australia and Pakistan players in virtually identical strips.
They may as well be wearing whites.
It’s not Pakistan’s fault, either. Australia used to wear canary yellow, but converted to the same green worn by Pakistan and very similar to South Africa’s green.
Admittedly, the yellow wasn’t a great look, especially when the shirts were too tight on the likes of David Boon and Merv Hughes.
But yellow was distinctive.
Countries that clash should be required to have an alternative uniform, so Pakistan might wear predominantly white with green trim when playing in Australia.
Australia should have an alternative yellow or white strip to wear against Pakistan and South Africa.
This occurs in all other major sports.
The national boards are obviously not taking any action themselves on this issue, so the ICC ought to step in.
