Following reports that the government may change India's name to 'Bharat', former cricketer Virender Sehwag suggested referring to the national team as 'Team Bharat' instead of 'Team India'. After the BCCI announced India's squad for the 2023 ICC Cricket World Cup, Sehwag tweeted that it should be '#TeamBharat' and players should wear 'Bharat' jerseys. With the proposed country name change gaining traction after 'Republic of Bharat' appeared on a President House invite, Sehwag recommended embracing 'Bharat' wholeheartedly as India heads into the World Cup on home soil. His tweet indicates growing public sentiment to officially establish 'Bharat' over 'India'.
