BCCI posted a video that summed and made the viewers relive the World Cup journey which lasted for the past one and a half months.
Stalwart batter Virat Kohli was crowned with the 'Fielder of the Match' award after India missed out on the World Cup title at the Narendra Modi Stadium. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) posted a video that summed and made the viewers relive the World Cup journey which lasted for the past one and a half months. India's fielding coach T Dilip each time came up with new ways to make the award even more special. But this time it was a simple conversation that saw Kohli bag the medal.
The experienced batter produced an inspiring knock with the bat but was even more sensational on the field with his aggressive presence. He cheered on each wicket as if he himself had claimed it and put his body on the line to stop the ball from running towards the boundary.
Dilip hailed Kohli for his on-field magic and said in a video posted by the BCCI, "During the course of the tournament I think we took some brilliant catches but what I really liked is the brotherhood we shared on the field. The way each one supported each other the way everyone was backing that's outstanding to see and I see only growing up as a team on the field and today's winner he's been a terrific player. He sets himself up great standards and every time he goes on the field he does magic and the best part is that he not only does his job so well but his actions inspire so many people and it is none other than Virat Kohli."
Dilip also made an inspirational speech to cheer up the players ensuring that even after ending up on the losing side the players can be proud of themselves.
"Guys, I know it is tough and we all feel the pain but that's what it is. We did everything possibly right and still the result is not in our favour. But I think Rahul (Dravid) bhai said we can all be proud of ourselves. I appreciate and thank every player in this group who have committed in the practice sessions. The way you put yourself on the line, you put intent and energy. I couldn't ask more than this. Well done," Dilip added.
