The Indian Cricket Board and the team management’s unique way of awarding and motivating the players to perform better on the field by giving the best fielder of the match a medal has gone viral and the team management is consistently finding new ways after every match to award the best fielder. After the game against New Zealand, Shreyas Iyer was awarded the best fielder of the match medal. After the match, the team’s head coach Rahul Dravid gathered the team on the field to declare Shreyas Iyer as the winner of the medal by the Spiderman camera, which brought in his image of catching out New Zealand’s opening batsman Devon Conway and sent him back to the dugout for a duck. 

“Good start to the tournament. The job is half done. Important to stay balanced. Not to think too far ahead. Important to stay in the present. The fielding is something we pride ourselves on. Today the fielding wasn’t clinical. Ravindra Jadeja is one of the best fielders in the world. These things happen. We know that fielding is something that will decide a lot of things going forward. We love travelling and playing in different parts of the game”, said Rohit Sharma in the post-match ceremony on India’s fielding performance.
