Here is the list of all the best fielder awardees after every India game at the 2023 World Cup.

The fielding coach of India, T Dilip, stated the tradition of announcing the best fielder after every game in a ceremony in the dressing room from India’s first match at the 2023 World Cup against Australia in Chennai.

The ceremony involves the fielding coach giving a thorough review of the performance of the Indian team on the field, including appreciating specific acts of fielding brilliance.
