Stalwart batter Virat Kohli was crowned with the ‘Fielder of the Match’ award after India missed out on the World Cup title at the Narendra Modi Stadium. The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) posted a video that summed up India’s World Cup journey.
India's fielding coach T. Dilip each time came up with new ways to make the award even more special. But this time, it was a moving speech that saw Kohli win the medal. The experienced batter produced an inspiring knock with the bat but was even more sensational on the field.
Dilip hailed Kohli for his on-field magic and said in a video posted by the BCCI: "During the course of the tournament I think we took some brilliant catches but what I really liked is the brotherhood we shared on the field. The way each one supported each other the way everyone was backing that's outstanding to see and I see only growing up as a team on the field and today's winner he's been a terrific player. He sets himself up great standards and every time he goes on the field he does magic and the best part is that he not only does his job so well but his actions inspire so many people and it is none other than Virat Kohli."
