Aakash Chopra, a cricket analyst and former Indian batter, believes that Shivam Dube’s hitting style is similar to that of former star batsman Yuvraj Singh. In the second Twenty20 International, Dube was outstanding for India against Afghanistan once more, coming in at number four. His astounding score of 63* comprised four maximums and five boundaries. With an incredible 60* off 40 deliveries in the first game of the series, he led the home team to victory.
“Shivam Dube—the child’s ability to strike. He is thirty years old; he is not a child. Due to familial circumstances, he began cricket later than others and missed several years of play when he was younger. I almost quit cricket, but I changed my mind. In a video that was uploaded to his YouTube account, Chopra remarked, “I scored a fifty against the West Indies in one match and then didn’t get that many opportunities.” “He was returning, but in his two games here, he scored more than sixty goals. In both games, the strike rate was exceptional and there were consecutive sixes. He kind of reminds you of Yuvraj Singh when he strikes,” Chopra continued.
Dube has surfaced as a potential member of India’s playing XI as the T20 World Cup draws near and Hardik Pandya’s health remains a question mark for the Men in Blue. Dube has taken three wickets in the current three-match series against Afghanistan in addition to hitting 10 boundaries and six maximums. Shivam Dube, in my opinion, is a very serious candidate for the World Cup since hitting sixes will require strength. On the West Indies pitches, you will not be able to hit sixes with time. The pitches are slow and the grounds are large,” Aakash remarked.With an unbeatable 2-0 lead in the series, India will be eager to finish the sweep in the final Twenty20 International, which takes place at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Wednesday.
