I have to search for a keyword on multiple fields for the same query string.  
"bool": {  
"should": [  
{  
"match": {  
"ABC": "Apple"  
}  
},  
{  
"match": {  
"XYZ": "Apple"  
}  
}  
]

When I wrote the query DSL , it has been translated as multimatch query(Not sure if the above code and DSL are same)  
.Bool(b =\> b  
.Should(sh =\> sh  
.MultiMatch(c =\> c  
.Fields(f =\> f.Field(p =\> p.ABC).Field("XYZ"))  
.Query(keyz)))))

Similarly i want to write a DSL query but i want to do match\_phrase operation. Can some one help me in solving this.

TIA
