Shivam Dube’s sublime form in IPL 2024

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) all-rounder has amassed 242 runs in just 6 matches at a phenomenal strike rate of 163.51. His unbeaten 66 against Mumbai Indians (MI) stands out as his highest score so far, and he has a healthy average of 60.5.

Dube’s power-hitting has been a key factor in CSK’s batting success. He has already smashed 15 sixes and 20 fours, showcasing his ability to dominate both pace and spin bowling.

This impressive form has caught the eye of former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra, who believes Dube deserves a place in the upcoming T20 World Cup squad. Chopra highlighted Dube’s consistent six-hitting ability and how his presence forces teams to switch bowling strategies.

“Shivam Dube – how will you not like this player? The way this player is playing, the way he is showing his power and hitting sixes, name an Indian striker who is hitting sixes more consistently than him against both pace and spin. As soon as he comes, the spinners’ overs end,” Chopra said on his YouTube channel.

The T20 World Cup 2024 will be held in the USA and the Caribbean Islands from June 2nd to June 27th, and with his current form, Dube is undoubtedly putting strong pressure on the national selectors.

“His reputation reaches before him, that he hits a lot, so you shouldn’t take a risk with him, and you will bowl all fast bowlers. He hit the fast bowlers also wholeheartedly. He didn’t spare anyone apart from (Jasprit) Bumrah. Send him to the West Indies now. The consulate is next to my home. Give me your passport, I will apply for your visa,” the former India opener added.
