Asia cup 2025: In the Asia Cup 2025, Team India defeated UAE by 9 wickets to register a stunning win. All -rounder Shivam Dubey was the most discussed in this match, who took 3 wickets for only 4 runs in 2 overs and broke the back of the opposition batsmen. His performance in bowling laid the foundation of the victory of the Indian team, due to which he is once again compared to Hardik Pandya, but about this comparison, Shivam Dubey has clearly said that this is wrong.
In a conversation with the media after the match, Dubey said, “Hardik is like a brother for me. I continuously learn from him. He has a lot of experience in IPL and international cricket. It is wrong to compare me with him, because I am in the learning era and my full focus is to improve myself by taking experience with them.”
Dubey is constantly getting stronger
In the last few months, Shivam Dubey has emerged as an important player for the Indian team. His power-touching in batting has already been identified by him, but now he is also giving options to the team in bowling. His bowling against UAE proved that captain Suryakumar Yadav and head coach Gautam Gambhir are confident in him.
Everyone’s eye on Pakistan match
India’s next match will be against Pakistan in Dubai on 14 September. Prior to this high-voltage match, Dubey said, “I can play against any team, my effort is to pay attention to the taught things of Gambhir Bhai (Coach) and Captain Suryakumar Yadav. Playing for India is a matter of responsibility and respect in itself.”
Fans also now hope that Dubey will show strength against both bat and ball against Pakistan.
Help from Morne Morkel
Dubey has credited the improvement in his bowling to Morne Morkel, the bowling coach of the Indian team. He told that Morkel made his runup shortened and advised to bowl on the line out of the off stump. The effect of his advice is now clear.
Also, Dubey said that he has worked hard on his fitness in the last two months. This is the reason why both his bowling and batting have improved.
Shivam Dubey is currently proving to be a trusted all -rounder for Team India. Although he is being compared to Hardik Pandya, Dubey believes that he wants to make his own identity. If their performance continues in this way, then India can get a new match-winner in the Asia Cup and then the World Cup.
