The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) have begun a brand new idea of ‘Dressing Room Medal’ for the perfect fielders within the group in the course of the ICC Cricket World Cup 2023 matches. Virat Kohli was the primary winner of the award adopted by the likes of Ravindra Jadeja.
On Sunday, after India’s win over New Zealand on the HPCA Stadium in Dharamsala, it was the flip of Shreyas Iyer to win the award. There had been three contenders for the award on Sunday night time – pacer Mohammed Siraj, who impressed along with his floor fielding on the dicey Dharamsala outfield, Kohli as soon as once more after taking a few spectacular catches and at last Iyer who began off the match with a superb catch at square-leg to dismiss New Zealand opener Devon Conway for a duck.
To announce the award in Dharamsala, the BCCI made use of the ‘Spider Cam’ after the match. The total group was requested to come back exterior for the declaration of the award because the ‘Spider Cam’ flew down in the direction of the sting of the boundary.
The total group was tremendous excited, when it was revealed that Shreyas Iyer can be profitable the award.

Iyer was wanting spectacular with the bat in opposition to New Zealand, smashing six boundaries in his 33 off 29 balls earlier than he skied Trent Boult to Devon Conway. The Kolkata Knight Riders captain too cost within the 52-run partnership for the third wicket with Kohli.
Team India pacer Mohammad Shami was the ‘Player of the Match’ in India’s four-wicket win over New Zealand. Shami picked up his second five-wicket haul in a World Cup match – changing into the primary Indian bowler to attain this feat.
However, Shami stopped wanting complaining in regards to the state of the outfield in Dharamsala. “You have seen how the outfield has been. There is no complaint because it was the same for both the teams. We cannot say anything to the groundsman because he is helpless, its his job, he tries very hard. I don’t think it is not good to put a question mark on someone,” Shami stated within the post-match press convention.
“But the situation and the condition is the same for both the teams. Both have to play. In India and abroad, there are up and downs. Sometimes they play on wet grounds. Sometimes we play on dry grounds. No complaints. The better the players, the better,” he added.
