Ravindra Jadeja beats KL Rahul to win ‘Fielder of the Match’ award

India’s star all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja beat wicketkeeper-batter KL Rahul and Kuldeep Yadav to win the fielder of the match award for his amazing diving catch at backward point against Bangladesh during the ICC World Cup. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has released a fun behind-the-scenes video in which Team India is seen having fun in the dressing room while the fielding coach is announcing the medal winner.

The teammates surrounded Jadeja. Rahul, who won the award in the previous match, did the honours and handed the medal over to Jadeja, who placed it around the neck of India’s fielding coach.
So far in the event, the winners of the medal have been proclaimed on television screens inside the dressing room. But Dilip took it a step further on Thursday when the best fielder of the match was declared on the stadium’s large screen, shocking the entire Indian squad.
While giving the medal, the Indian fielding coach praised Rahul and Jadeja’s excellent dives while fielding. Dilip later added that the team focuses on saving runs and not just one catch but overall performance, for which he chose Jadeja for the best fielding award.
