In the Super 8 match of T20 World Cup 2024, the Indian team strengthened its claim for the title by registering a spectacular 47-run win against Afghanistan. However, the performance of some players in this match has been quite disappointing. One name in this is Chennai Super Kings all-rounder Shivam Dubey. Shivam Dubey once again flopped badly in the match against Afghanistan. He was out after scoring 10 runs off just 7 balls. Seeing his consistently poor performance, fans are demanding to drop him from the team.
Shivam Dubey's flop performance
When Shivam Dubey was selected for the 2024 T20 World Cup, fans expected that he would perform brilliantly in the World Cup like he did in the IPL. But Dubey was a complete flop in the World Cup and was seen struggling like a novice batsman. Shivam Dubey has been able to score only 44 runs in 4 innings so far in the tournament, in which he scored 31 runs against USA.
In the match against Pakistan, Shivam Dubey appeared under a lot of pressure and could score only 3 runs. In the match against Afghanistan too, Shivam Dubey could score only 10 runs. Rashid Khan showed him the way to the pavilion by getting him out LBW. In all the four matches played in the T20 World Cup, Shivam Dubey could not take advantage of the opportunity and proved to be a big flop.
Demand to give chance to Rinku Singh in place of Shivam Dubey
After failing miserably in the match against Afghanistan, Shivam Dubey is being trolled heavily on social media. Angry fans are demanding that Shivam Dubey be dropped from the next match in view of his consistently poor performance. Despite Dubey's flop performance, he is being given continuous opportunities. In such a situation, fans are demanding captain Rohit Sharma to give Rinku Singh or Sanju Samson a chance in the playing eleven in his place.
