NEW DELHI: Since Yuvraj Singh‘s retirement, Team India has been on a quest for a left-arm all-rounder capable of turning matches around, reminiscent of the legendary player’s impact in his prime. The search appears to have ended with Shivam Dube, who is striving to step into those formidable shoes.
Playing for the Chennai Super Kings, Dube smashed a magnificent 45 runs off just 24 balls against the Sunrisers Hyderabad in an IPL 2024 encounter.
