Shivam Dube
For the first time in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2024, the Indian team gave the ball to all-rounder Shivam Dube in the clash against the United States at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York. However, it seemed things did not go in his favour as he conceded 11 runs in one over on a pitch known to assist bowlers more.
In the over he bowled—the 8th—his first ball went for a four, then a run, then two dot balls, and his 5th ball was hit for a 77m six, with the 6th ball again being a dot. While this might not seem like much, fans who were already upset with his batting performance took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to express their frustration.
