T20 World Cup 2024: Jay Shah Presents Fielder Of The Match To Suryakumar Yadav

Team India's T20 World Cup 2024 victory culminated in a joyous celebration as fielding coach T Dilip hosted the fielding ceremony. The Indian team was elated, celebrating their historic achievement of becoming world champions. The dressing room buzzed with energy and excitement after their win.

Suryakumar Yadav Presented Field Of the Match

This time, BCCI secretary Jay Shah was invited to present the fielding medal award. Suryakumar Yadav received the medal for his crucial catch in the final over of the match. The team's tradition of honoring the best fielding effort was fittingly recognized.

Jay Shah awarded the medal to an ecstatic Suryakumar, who proudly displayed both his World Cup medal and the best fielding medal. Suryakumar's catch was compared to Kapil Dev's iconic catch from the 1983 World Cup. South Africa needed 16 runs in the final over to claim their first World Cup title, with David Miller at the crease.

Miller, determined to swing the match in South Africa's favor, hit the first ball towards long-off. As the ball soared, the crowd held its breath. Suryakumar, calm and composed, made a spectacular catch at the long-off boundary. Despite his momentum carrying him over the fence, he quickly threw the ball back and completed one of the greatest catches in ICC event history.

The BCCI's official Instagram account shared a special video of the ceremony, where T Dilip praised the entire team for their outstanding performance.
