Shivam Dube’s wicket against BAN – (X.com)
India are in control against Bangladesh in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024 match at the Sir Vivian Richards Stadium as the Men in Blue put 196 runs on the board after 20 overs, which is the highest total raised on this site in this edition.
Hardik Pandya was the star with the bat as the MI skipper scored a fifty. Meanwhile, Rishabh Pant and Shivam Dube helped him well with over thirty runs.
Talking about Dube, the CSK star player was under the scanner before this match due to his silence with the bat. However, Dube showed why the selectors trusted him by scoring 34 (24), which featured three big sixes.
When the left-hander looked comfortable, he surprisingly fell prey to spinner Rishad Hossain, who cleaned him up with a peachy delivery. Dube made a name for himself by sending spinners off the ground, but on the 2nd ball of the 18th over, Dube missed the line and it rattled his middle stump.
