Watch: Shreyas Iyer Makes 'Presence' Felt In India's Medal Tradition After England Series Win

The Indian cricket team continued their tradition of giving out 'fielding awards' to top performers after the series win over England with Shreyas Iyer finding a special mention from fielding coach T Dilip. Iyer played the first two Tests of the five-match series but was left out of the squad for the rest of the matches and he was also excluded from the BCCI central contracts list. In a video posted by BCCI on social media, T Dilip was seen praising the Indian cricket team players for their brilliant fielding performances and added that Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill will be sharing one medal.

“Now I want to recognize the collective efforts that lit up the series. Shreyas is not here but in initial games he was brilliant on the field with his catches and outstanding.
