I try to enhance my skills as an all-rounder: Shivam Dube

The Hindu  

Shivam Dube, 26, is the latest entrant to an elite club of cricketers to have played for India when he made his debut against Bangladesh in the recently concluded T20 series. Currently playing for Mumbai in the Syed Mushtaq Ali trophy, Dube has chipped in with cameos with both bat and ball at crucial stages for his side in its victories against Jharkhand and Karnataka. Dube found himself in the national set-up after India’s first choice medium-pace all-rounder Hardik Pandya was forced out of the game due to injury, and the youngster knows that he needs to do more to cement his place in the side with Vijay Shankar also waiting in the wings. So I have ensured that I put in the hard hours to maintain my fitness and I have always tried to enhance my skills as an all-rounder.” Standing tall at more than six feet, Dube has become known for his big-hitting abilities with comparisons to Yuvraj Singh as well in terms of his timing and clean striking capabilities.
