The India team will have new kits, a new blue jersey with the logo of Sahara India embossed on them.

TK Hockey Equipments, which also has a tie-up with the FIH, is supplying the kits for the first time to the India team.

Rajan Kohli, who runs a subsidiary of TK in Jalandhar, said he had another company which in the past had supplied sticks to the national team, but now he is looking forward to working closely with Indian hockey.

'We are associated with Indian hockey since 1982. We are the best in apparell and kitting and hope to have a long association with Indian hockey,' he said.
