The Indian men's hockey team has changed its jersey color from blue to saffron (orange) for better visibility during matches played on blue artificial pitches. This decision was taken after considering suggestions from players, coaches, and support staff. The new color was chosen as it is part of the Indian national flag. The change has sparked some debate, with former Olympian Jagbir Singh suggesting a combination of blue and orange, and Hockey India President Dilip Tirkey urging against politicizing the issue.
