In Pune, after their World Cup win over Bangladesh, India's fielding coach T Dilip announced the dressing-room award for best fielder in an innovative way. Instead of showing the winner on the TV in the dressing room as they had done previously, he had it displayed on the ground's giant screen amid cheers and excitement from the players. In Dharamsala, after India's win over New Zealand, he went one step further and got the award delivered via the Spidercam.
Shreyas Iyer was the lucky guy receiving it in Dharamsala.
Ravindra Jadeja won the award in Pune.

The Sunday World Cup clash between India and New Zealand was briefly interrupted when fog enveloped the ground, making it hard to see... pretty much anything. Still, it's better than when sun stopped play when these two teams met four years ago!

Dodgy equipment? No problem for Grace Harris, whose bat came apart but the ball still went over the boundary.
EXTRAORDINARY!

Grace Harris had a broken bat, and this is how it played out:
"Hey guys, I need a new bat!"
"Stuff it, I'll still hit it!"
And then Harris hits it for SIX! #WBBL09 @SportsCenter #SCTop10 pic.twitter.com/ZI9JUnAyyl
And what does she plan to name the broken bad? McCrispy? McSpicy?
