The England ODI Shirt has been predominantly blue ever since it came into main usage during the 1992 World Cup. It is fair to say the shirt has evolved since then, all the international shirts were pretty standardised then. England had a pale blue kit, this was because Sri Lanka had the dark blue kit, but since then England have generally used a dark blue kit, often with red trimmings. The present kit ranks amongst the best England have used. It is all navy blue with red sleeves, sponsored by Vodafone.
To be honest, the England kit has not been the most notoriously famous of international kits, certainly it is not worn as much as the England football kit, nor is it as instantly recognisable. One of the main reasons for this has been England's performances in the cricket World Cup. England have reached three world cup finals, the last one being in 1992, however all have been lost. Performances since then have been relatively poor and England's ODI record in the last few years has been one of the poorest from all the major test playing nations. Nevertheless the England ODI kit still has it's charm and at an England cricket match would be far more recognisable than the all white Test Shirt.
