The striking kit is more than just a change of colours – it represents the spirit of a team determined to make its mark while bringing people together through cricket.
Inspired by the values that sit at the heart of the franchise, every element of the new kit reflects the passion, community and fearless energy that define SunRisers Leeds. From lifelong cricket supporters to families discovering the game for the first time, SunRisers Leeds aims to build something that extends far beyond the boundary rope.
