In a fun behind-the-scenes video posted by the BCCI after the India vs Australia World Cup 2023, Kohli can be seen being awarded the medal by the fielding coach.
While giving the medal, the Indian fielding coach praised Shreyas Iyer for his excellent dive while fielding. Dilip later added that the team focuses on consistency and not just one catch but overall performance, for which he chose Virat Kohli for the best fielding award.
"In today's game against Australia Shreyas Iyer was excellent with diving while fielding. But in our team, we always talked about consistency, it is not about just one catch but overall performance and it is not only just doing your job but backing up and encouraging other teammates to perform better. So, I think this one goes to Virat," T Dilip said while awarding the medal.
