Shivam Dube, a big hitter and a useful medium pacer, is making a name for himself in T20 cricket. He hasn’t played much against Pakistan but his recent good form has got him a spot in the 2025 Asia Cup team. This tournament is known to create legends and intensify rivalries.
Dube has played only one match against Pakistan. But his selection in a big tournament like the Asia Cup shows that the team thinks he can perform under pressure. Let’s look at his short stats and what’s ahead.
