Washing disaster- white t shirt now pink!!

Can anyone help me? My Hs beloved Sri Lanken cricket shirt (which my brother bought him whilst on holiday, and it is a perfect fit, unlike most of his shirts) has gone pink thanks to my inability to seperate the whites from the colours.
It is a white t-shirt with blue print on the main body, and blue arms. Is there anyway that I could bleach the white, without affecting the rest of the shirt, or is this a lost cause???

Don't dry it....
Try soaking and re-washing.
I'm sure there will be better advice soon, but keep it wet until then.Official DFW Nerd Club - Member no: 203.0 -

Darn- it has been hanging out to dry for a few hours! Its still a bit damp so I have chucked it back into the washing machine... fingers crossed!

How about soaking in Napisan or Ace bleach! ( It isnt a full bleach but a good aid to remove stains)0

Follow that up with Glo-white net curtain whitener, and it should get it back to white.0
