In a spectacular display of fielding skills, Team India emerged victorious in the three-match T20I series against Afghanistan, clinching a clean sweep with a 3-0 scoreline. The series not only showcased India's dominance but also highlighted the stellar performances of individual players in the field.

Adding a unique touch to the post-match dressing room rituals, the tradition of awarding the Best Fielder medal continued, a tradition established during the ICC World Cup 2023. Fielding coach T Dilip announced the deserving recipient after each match, emphasizing the importance of exceptional fielding skills.

During the series, Virat Kohli aged 35, stood out as a live wire on the field. Dilip mentioned that Kohli expressed his preference to be at the boundary rather than manning the slips, a decision that proved instrumental in the team's success. Despite missing the first T20I due to personal reasons, Kohli's return in the subsequent matches showcased his commitment to contributing on the field.

Rinku Singh, another standout performer in the series, earned accolades for his brilliant saves and exceptional catches, earning praise from both fans and teammates alike. However, it was Virat Kohli who ultimately secured the coveted Fielder of the Series medal, triumphing over Singh in the race for the award.
