      In the ongoing World Cup, the Indian cricket team is not just striving for victories against their opponents, but they are also engaged in a lively competition for the coveted 'best fielder' medal. This friendly rivalry has been a source of banter and excitement among the players.

      Shreyas Iyer added another dimension to this contest. After taking a sensational catch at mid-wicket to dismiss Devon Conway in the crucial India vs New Zealand match, he couldn't resist showing his aspiration to secure the 'best fielder' medal. His celebratory gesture, signaling towards the dressing room, mirrored the playful enthusiasm displayed by Ravindra Jadeja following his outstanding catch in the previous game against Bangladesh.

      In this World Cup, the Indian team has introduced a unique tradition of awarding medals to the best fielder of the day. The tradition has already seen notable players like Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja bagging the prestigious accolade for their exceptional fielding performances. Kohli's stellar fielding efforts earned him the 'best fielder' title during the match against Australia, and Jadeja's remarkable display of fielding skills in the last game against Bangladesh secured him the same honor.

      As the tournament progresses, this 'best fielder' competition is intensifying, providing an added layer of motivation for the Indian players.
