Meanwhile, After India defeated New Zealand by an incredible four wickets, it was the to announce the recipient of the Indian team’s outstanding fielder award. Instead of presenting the prize to Jadeja in person, fielding coach T. Dilip thought of a unique way to do so by projecting his amazing soaring grab onto a big screen. This time it was different.
The Indian fielding coach addressed the squad in the changing room. Dilip was pleased with the Indian players’ fielding performance despite a couple of botched catches.
He praised Mohammed Siraj for an excellent day in the field and some stunning stops, as well as Virat Kohli for his fielding prowess. Finally, he used the spidercam to announce Shreyas Iyer as the victor. At his suggestion, the squad as a whole turned to face the ground and left the room. A drone carrying an Iyer picture frame was seen approaching them there.
