Whenever Shivam Dube hits a six, the commentators, the media, and the fans are again forced to mention Yuvraj Singh.It is mostly about the bat swing, when it comes to comparisons. The timing; the power of that stroke and also its fluidity as the ball flies deep into stands.<\/p>\n
Tonight was yet another of those days when the CSK all-rounder took the matter into his own hands and in only 22 balls scored his second-fastest fifty in IPL history.<\/p>\n
But Dube\u2019s destruction of the Gujarat Titans was the perfect showcase for his aggressive batting style, and he emerged a potential asset to India in the coming T20 World Cup. With a deluge of boundaries and towering sixes, Dube\u2019s innings into not only the crowd electric but also pushed his side-enough<\/p>\n
Although he came and went quickly, Dube\u2019s hitting barrage left an indelible mark on the game: 2 fours and 5 sixes. His ability to inflict serious damage in a short space of time underlines KKR\u2019s growing status as game changers.<\/p>\n
Its his ability to hit sixes that is putting him in an altogether different category from other contenders who are lining up for the seam-bowling all-rounder\u2019s spot behind Hardik Pandya in India\u2019s squad for the T20 World Cup in June.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
