Preity Zinta told the reason

Hence, the franchise had to change its color choice and now they appear entirely in red. Preeti said, earlier, we had the combination of red, gray and silver, but then BCCI banned silver, gray and white due to problem in seeing the ball. So, we went ahead with red color and this year we have the best combination with red color.
