Yuvraj Singh suggests a player who should be included in the T20 World Cup squad

Yuvraj Singh, a former India player, closely monitors the performances of Indian players in the 17th season of the cash-rich league. He frequently tweets about Abhishek Sharma, Shubman Gill, and Shivam Dube. In the latest IPL 2024 game between Sunrisers Hyderabad and Chennai Super Kings, Abhishek and Shivam demonstrated their class.

Despite the slow pitch at the Rajiv Gandhi International Cricket Stadium in Hyderabad, Dube batted aggressively and did not allow the track's slowness to affect his game.

He scored 45 runs off 24 balls, hitting 4 sixes and 2 fours. In contrast, Abhishek scored 37 off 12 balls, with 4 sixes and 3 fours.

Yuvraj Singh praised Shivam Dube and even mentioned his potential inclusion in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 squad.

“Good to watch @IamShivamDube clearing the field with ease !! I feel he has to be in the World Cup squad . Has got the skill to be the #gamechanger,”

Since joining the Chennai-based franchise, the southpaw has transformed into a different player. While he struggled with Royal Challengers Bengaluru, he has been making significant contributions with both bat and ball for CSK.

In the 2023 title-winning campaign, he scored over 400 runs and has since earned a place on the Indian team. Dube is now a top contender to represent India in the global event taking place in June, which will be held in the West Indies and the United States of America.
