Know how RCB's green jerseys are made

     

         Bengaluru, May 8: Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) donned a green jersey yesterday (May 6) in their IPL 2017 match against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at the Chinnaswamy Stadium.

       In an attempt to spread awareness on environmental conservation and global warming, RCB wear the green jersey on a particular day as a part of their Go Green initiative. The franchise started this initiative from 2011.

The jerseys are made from recycled plastic bottles which are found and collected from in and around the stadium during RCB's home matches.

Approximately 11,000 bottles are used to produce high-end eco-friendly fabrics which are used in the jerseys.
