Former Indian cricketer Irfan Pathan complimented Chennai Super Kings (CSK) all-rounder Shivam Dube for his impressive performance in the 2024 Indian Premier League (IPL). He indirectly compared Dube to Hardik Pandya, implying that Dube is better at hitting spin bowling.
Shivam Dube has been showcasing his batting prowess in the current season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024. The Chennai Super Kings batsman has displayed exceptional skill and is dominating bowlers throughout the tournament. His performances have been instrumental in CSK’s success in the tournament.
Shivam Dube’s presence in the Chennai Super Kings team has helped them continue their aggressive batting even in the middle overs, where spinners usually control the game. The left-handed batsman has been especially harsh on spin bowlers, hitting big sixes effortlessly all over the ground.
In the match against Sunrisers Hyderabad, Shivam Dube scored 45 runs off just 26 balls which included two fours and four sixes. Irfan Pathan said that Shivam Dube is currently the best spin hitter from the team and the selectors must keep their eye on Dube for the upcoming T20 World Cup.
“Right now Shivam Dube is way ahead of anyone in Indian cricket as far as spin-hitting ability is concerned! Indian selectors should keep a close eye on him for the World Cup.”
