Shivam Dube has been a revelation for Chennai Super Kings. The all-rounder was struggling and was inconsistent with the bat and ball. However, he has become a match-winner since joining the most successful franchise in the tournament.
In the game against Gujarat Titans, the southpaw scored 51 off 23 balls, with the help of 5 towering sixes and 2 fours. Ruturaj Gaikwad, who is the new captain of the five-time champions, credited Dube’s success to MS Dhoni.
According to Ruturaj, Dhoni has worked hard on Dube’s talent and the results are now showing.
“Mahi bhai has worked alot with Shivam Dube. We can all see his in his performances,” he said at the press conference after the game.
Dube’s hitting along with Rachin Ravindra and Gaikwad’s fabulous innings took the home team to 206/6 in 20 overs.
GT were never in the run chase and amassed 148 in 20 overs. Deepak Chahar, Mustafizur Rahman and Tushar Deshpande took two wickets each.
Incredible performance for Team Indiaa
Shivam Dube has become an important part of the Indian team in T20Is. He has been a top contributor in the success of the Men in Blue. Shivam is likely to play in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024.
