One aspect that seems to have escaped Dr. Ali Bacher's efforts to present the
2003 World Cup in a favourable and multidimensional light are the rather dull
and boring team uniforms doled out to the cricketers. The team colours and patterns resemble the
usual uniform sets that teams wear round the year, thus denying this World Cup
to visually stand out and be differentiated. If one were to catch a glimpse from
any match years later,
one would not be able to immediately identify it as a match from this Cup,
unlike from the earlier Cups (since coloured clothing was introduced from '92).
I quite liked the outfits of the '99 Cup. The
designers of the 2003 WC don't seem to have any new patterns in mind, going for the mundane
designs. The colours of Pakistan & Bangladesh, Canada & Zimbabwe seem all too
similar and so on. Not a Cup to remember if you're sartorially inclined.
