Former Chennai Super Kings (CSK) stalwart Suresh Raina has made a passionate plea to BCCI chief selector Ajit Agarkar to include star CSK all-rounder Shivam Dube in the upcoming T20 World Cup squad. Raina’s appeal highlights Dube’s significant contributions and the value he brings to the team.
Dube has consistently showcased his exceptional skills and temperament, making him a formidable force on the field. His ability to excel under pressure, particularly in high-stakes matches, makes him an ideal candidate for the global tournament.
In a recent match against the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), Dube played a blistering knock of 66 runs off just 27 balls, including three fours and seven massive sixes. His explosive batting propelled CSK to a competitive total of 210/4.
Dube’s impressive performance in the IPL has earned him widespread recognition. He has surpassed the 1000-run mark for CSK, demonstrating his consistency and ability to deliver under pressure.
Raina’s advocacy for Dube stems from his belief that the all-rounder possesses the necessary skills and experience to succeed on the international stage. Dube’s versatility, both as a batsman and a bowler, makes him a valuable asset to any team.
With the T20 World Cup approaching, Raina’s plea to Agarkar underscores the importance of selecting players who can perform under pressure and contribute to the team’s success. Dube’s inclusion in the squad would provide India with a dynamic and explosive all-rounder who can make a significant impact on the tournament.
