New Delhi. India has taken an unassailable 2-0 lead in the T20 series against Afghanistan (IND vs AFG). But more than the victory of Team India, there is more discussion about the player who has raised questions on Hardik Pandya’s position. We are talking about Shivam Dube, who made a great entry in Team India in place of Hardik Pandya. This player has done the feat in just 2 matches which took Hardik Pandya 7 years to do.

Hardik Pandya made his T20 debut in Team India in 2016. After which he made his mark as a fast bowling all-rounder in the Indian team and cemented his place. After 7 years, Shivam Dubey has challenged him in this matter. Dubey scored quick half-centuries in the first two matches against Afghanistan and also took one wicket each. Shivam Dubey has overtaken Hardik in terms of taking wickets with half-centuries. Hardik has managed to take wickets with a half-century only once in his T20 career. Not only this, Dubey has equaled Hardik Pandya in terms of half-centuries in just 13 innings.

Can leave behind in the next match

Shivam Dubey made his T20 debut in the Indian team in the year 2019. But due to poor performance in 2020, he was dropped from the team. Now after 4 years, this player has made a strong comeback in Team India. Hardik has scored only 3 half-centuries in 71 T20 innings, whereas Dubey has scored 3 half-centuries in 13 innings. Now, if Shivam Dubey maintains his charm even in the last T20, then he can defeat Hardik in the matter of fifty.
