5 Things other T20 leagues copied from Indian Premier League (IPL)
Many IPL ideas and concepts became so much popular over the years that many above mentioned leagues are trying to implement them in their competition as well.
3. Home and away jerseys
One who follows football leagues around the world must be very familiar with this concept of having different club jerseys for different matches. Many football clubs have a home jersey which they wear in all home matches while a different jersey for away matches. This helps to differentiate which one is a home side and which one is a travelling one.
The Indian Premier League (IPL) introduced this concept many years ago partially if not fully when the Karnataka franchise Royal Challengers Bangalore decided to wear two different jerseys for home and away matches. The Virat Kohli-led side wore the red and gold jersey for their home matches while black and gold jersey for their away games. Though other teams from the tournament weren’t much keen on this idea.
Now, the Big Bash League (BBL) has also come up with this same idea. But they have surely implemented this concept on a wider basis as all of their clubs are wearing a black variant combined with their home jersey’s colour while playing away games. This has surely helped viewers to identify the home and away side in a nick of time while watching the matches.
