Indian team’s fielding coach T Dilip has said that one of the biggest highlights of India’s 2023 World Cup season so far has been the wicketkeeper’s “amazing performance” after KL Rahul’s long-term absence due to injury. I feel that I have adapted very well. The Indian wicketkeeper-batsman shone with his bat and glove handling in India’s win over the Netherlands in Bengaluru.
India have the second-highest total in the World Cup with KL Rahul scoring the fastest century for the Indian team (62 balls), Shreyas Iyer’s unbeaten 128 and half-centuries from Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Shubman Gill A total of 410 has been reached. Virat Kohli bowled three overs in Bangalore and KL Rahul secured his maiden World Cup wicket with Virat Kohli taking a brilliant catch on the leg side.
After 9 wins from 9 matches, T Dilip said that KL Rahul has performed very well for the Indian team and is incredibly good as a wicketkeeper for the Indian team. I believe that I showed a good performance. By working on a few things, he was able to get back to his best performance in the game.
“He did a really great job as a wicketkeeper,” added T Dilip.
“When he came, he obviously had a long injury break, which was a challenging element for us. He has developed really well. A person who has been keeping wickets since he was young, we have identified several factors and worked on them, but every wicketkeeper is different. This is the person who needs a session. When we spoke to him and we thought he is such a wicket-keeper,” added T Dilip.
ODI World Cup 2023 KL Rahul once again showcased his outstanding performance of first-class wicketkeeping with the gloves and was already recovering from a hamstring injury ahead of the Asia Cup . KL Rahul in his 9 matches he won 12 catches and gloves by stumping.

T Dilip downplayed concerns over Mohammed Siraj’s dropped catch during Sunday’s win against Netherlands. Siraj tries unsuccessfully to pick up the ball, the ball slips between his hands and hits him in the throat, and he misses another ball, flying high into the night sky.
“There are no specific problems. It is difficult for a bowler to find his way in a big tournament. Your dedication was outstanding. The way he lines his body is amazing . We are trying to improve our consistency. We are confident that he has the skills to perform well in big matches,” T Dilip added.
