Once touted to become a regular Indian player, Dube has featured in 1 ODI 13 T20s, and has 24 IPL appearances. CSK has trusted him to fill the rounder's boots with the aging and injury-prone Dwayne Bravo. Under MS Dhoni's captaincy, Shivam Dube could turn himself into the match-winner that we thought he was.
