    ODI World Cup: Ahead of the five-match Test tour of England, T. Dilip has been restored as the fielding coach of the Indian men's cricket team. Dilip, who was brought into the national set-up in November 2021 when Rahul Dravid was the head coach and given an extension till March this year, had been removed from the team’s support staff last month.

    The Hyderabad-based Dilip has now been handed a one-year contract. “There had been talks going on for the last few days that Dilip could be back in the Indian team, which was initially surprising. But now the confirmation is there of him being reinstated in the Indian team and Dilip will now be with the coaching staff on the important Test tour of England,” said sources aware of the development to IANS on Tuesday.

    Dilip had become a popular figure through the videos posted on BCCI’s social media accounts for handing out medals to the best fielder of the match, a trend which began from the 2023 Men’s ODI World Cup at home. That trend grew in popularity when India had victorious campaigns in the 2024 Men’s T20 World Cup and the 2025 Champions Trophy.
