The UP Warriorz: UP Warriorz revealed their new jersey for the upcoming Women’s Premier League season on Wednesday, a kit that combines Banarasi textile traditions with high-performance sports, symbolising the Warriorz spirit of bravery, identity, and fearless cricket.
The jersey has been created in partnership with Ekaya Banaras, the team’s official designer. The UP Warriorz x Ekaya collaboration unveils the “A Blooming Rebellion” jersey, blending modern sports design with traditional craftsmanship. Drawing inspiration from Banaras’ floral heritage and Ekaya’s renowned weaving, the design reimagines cultural motifs through a contemporary, performance-orientated approach.
Inspired by the symbolic significance of flowers in Banarasi culture—representing strength, tradition, and renewal—the jersey conveys the stories of silk in a bold, forward-looking athletic style. Created to celebrate culture, identity, and modern femininity, it serves as a visual testament to women carrying their heritage with confidence and independence.
