India’s poor T20I series drew sharp criticism from a former World Cup winner, putting an experienced player in the spotlight.
Former captain Kris Srikkanth criticised Shivam Dube for his fielding errors and questioned whether he should play international cricket.
Shivam Dube dropped England captain Harry Brook early, and Brook went on to score big, helping England dominate the match.
Srikkanth said Dube’s fielding is poor and questioned how India can win with him on the field, calling it a joke that he’s an international all-rounder.
Srikkanth said Dube’s dropped catch hurt both Prince Yadav and the team. He questioned why Dube keeps getting picked, claiming he often drops catches and gives away runs.
The debate is now about whether Dube does enough overall to deserve a spot in India’s T20I XI.
With criticism rising, all eyes are on the selectors. Will Shivam Dube get more chances, or is this a turning point in his T20I career?
