Dravid, Rohit's Faith Helped Me Stay Focused In T20 WC: Shivam Dube
T20 World Cup: India all-rounder Shivam Dube -- who was initially struggling with his form in the T20 World Cup 2024 in the USA and Caribbean -- said that coach Rahul Dravid and skipper Rohit Sharma had constantly backed him and their faith in his abilities has helped him to stay focused.
The big-hitter, Dube did not have much impact with the bat in the T20 showpiece, scoring 13 runs in eight matches with the highest score 34. But, he proved his worth when it needed the most. His 27 off 16 balls cameo in the summit clash turned out to be vital in India's title triumph.
In the final against South Africa, Dube came in to bat when India was in trouble at 103-4 after 13.3 overs. Coming in under pressure, the 31-year-old joined Virat Kohli and forged a crucial 57-run partnership for the fifth wicket to stabilise the innings.
