Watch: Wild Celebration of Virat Kohli After Team India Reveals Best Fielder from Pakistan Clash
After defeating Pakistan in the 2023 World Cup clash, members of the Rohit Sharma-led side celebrated the historic win in the dressing room at Ahmedabad's Narendra Modi Stadium. Team India's fielding coach, T. Dilip revealed the best fielder of the recently concluded encounter between the two archrivals.
In a video shared by the official social media of the Board of Control for Cricket in India, India fielding coach Dilip praised Indian bowlers for their superlative performances against Babar's Pakistan. A collective bowling show from superstars Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, Hardik Pandya, Ravindra Jadeja, and Kuldeep Yadav forced Pakistan to settle for a below-par total against India at the world's largest cricket stadium.
Dilip said, “I think special mention goes to Mohammed Siraj, Kuldeep Yadav, Shardul Thakur, and Jasprit Bumrah for moving around quickly to their places and doing their best in the afternoon by going back to back.” Indian bowlers bagged two wickets each as Pakistan folded for 191 in 42.5 overs.

However, Dilip handed out the best fielder award to KL Rahul, who was exceptional for India behind the wickets. Wicketkeeper-batter Rahul plucked a sharp catch of Imam-ul-Haq in the high voltage at the World Cup. After the Indian think tank picked Rahul as the best fielder, an animated Virat Kohli won the internet with his noteworthy reaction.
