Ahmedabad, Oct 16: Following India’s seven-wicket win against Pakistan in the 12th match of the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup (CWC) 2023 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, India fielding coach T Dilip gave the best fielding award of the game to the wicketkeeper-batsman KL Rahul.
Prior to presenting the award, Dilip commended the Indian bowling attack for their swift movement and fielding efforts.
The moment the announcement of Rahul being the best field of the game made, Virat Kohli was seen erupted in joy and enjoyed the moment to the fullest.
“I think special mention to Mohammed Siraj, Kuldeep Yadav, Shardul Thakur, and Jasprit Bumrah for moving around quickly to their places, doing their best in the afternoon by going back to back,” Dilip said.
The fielding coach also lauded Jadeja for his remarkable speed and precision during the game against Pakistan.
“One thing special to see is that the world’s best fielder is back doing what he is renowned to be doing the best. Good to see Ravindra Jadeja doing the speed and accuracy and getting there,” he added.
