Shivam Dube, the left-handed swashbuckling all-rounder from Mumbai is all set to make his debut for the Indian cricket team in the upcoming T20I series between India and Bangladesh.
Shivam Dube first came into limelight when he smashed veteran spinner Pravin Tambe for five sixes in an over during a domestic tournament in Mumbai. He repeated the same knock in the 2018 season of the Ranji Trophy.

Meanwhile, he also appeared on Chahal Tv. While talking to Yuzvendra Chahal on Chahal TV, Shivam Dube was asked about his thoughts on his debut match. To which he replied:
“I just want to continue performing well. I am playing for the country now so it is a very proud moment. There will be more eyes on me and so I need to work hard and continue the good work,”

Ahead of the match, with his first International T20 between India and Bangladesh set to get underway today, Shivam Dube was not leaving any stone unturned to sharpen his skills.
BCCI uploaded a video of Shivam Dube’s practice session and there was this one backlift that stole all the limelight away. Looking at the backlift, the fans just can’t help but compare him to the legendary Yuvraj Singh.
