India's fielding coach T Dilip has been inventive in awarding the Fielder of the Match medal after each victory. After India's 243-run win over South Africa at Eden Gardens, Rohit Sharma was presented the medal. Teammates Shubman Gill and Ishan Kishan congratulated him, while Shreyas Iyer presented the medal.
Aside from India's great performance by batters and bowlers, the fielding medal ceremony after each match has captured the attention of fans in the ongoing ICC World Cup 2023.
India's fielding coach T Dilip has been at the forefront of it, and his inventive methods of proclaiming the best fielder of the match have been something to look forward to following each India triumph.
It was no different after India's mammoth 243-run victory over South Africa at the iconic Eden Gardens in Kolkata on Sunday. India captain Rohit Sharma won the Fielder of the Match medal in Eden Gardens after India hammered South Africa by 243 runs in the ongoing tournament.
He impressed with his sharp fielding skills and an attacking start with bat which gave the hosts a solid state in their innings. He played stunning innings of 40 runs in 24 deliveries.
As Rohit was announced as the medal winner, India opener Shubman Gill and batter Ishan Kishan went over to the India captain and congratulated him. Shreyas Iyer presented India's skipper with a medal.
"The beauty of our team is that we just fly on the field but also we don't field with the hands but it is with a genuine commitment, I have seen today. This reminds me of a simple and most important quote I feel is that the strength of our whole team is each member. We have a new entry today. Suryakumar Yadav did show that his quickness and his effort on the field was fantastic," Dilip said in a video posted by the BCCI.
