‘Is team ka toh jeetna banta hi hai’ – Fans react as Rohit Sharma wins Fielder of the match award against South Africa
Team India
The Indian cricket team’s captain Rohit Sharma was recently awarded the fielder of the match medal at the end of the match in the dressing room by the team’s fielding coach. The Best Fielder Medal in the Indian team has gained wide recognition as each player tries their best to win it, resulting in an overall team performance.
The Indian cricket team management has tried to find different ways to announce the winner of the medal in a unique way in every possible game. India recently beat South Africa by 243 runs and Rohit Sharma was the top contender for the medal along with Ravindra Jadeja, KL Rahul and Suryakumar Yadav.
Rohit Sharma on India’s performance against South Africa in ODI World Cup 2023
In the post-match ceremony, Rohit Sharma talked about India’s performance in the ODI World Cup and said, “If you look at how we have played in the last three games, we have adapted better. We were put under pressure against England. But we got a decent score and then the seamers did the job. We lost a wicket in the first over. Then got runs and then the seamers did well. We needed Kohli to go out there and play the situation. We then knew we had to keep it in the right areas and let the pitch do the rest.”
While talking about Shreyas Iyer and Shubman Gill, he said, “Even if the faith hadn’t been repaid, I would have still stuck to them. We need to keep the trust. It can’t be done every day. For Shami to come back the way he has, shows the mindset. The last two games have shown what Iyer is capable of. Gill and myself have been batting together for the majority of the time now. We let our instincts take over. We don’t preplan anything. We just assess and play accordingly.”
“Jadeja has been very good for us. Playing in every format over the years. Today was a classical case as to what Jadeja is for us. Came out at the death and scored vital runs. Then picked up wickets. He knows his role and knows what the expectations are from him. Not to get too ahead of ourselves has been the talk in the dressing room. A couple of big games coming up. We don’t want to change anything”, he added.
