Shivam Dube, who was a member of India's T20 World Cup-winning team, unleashed his power-hitting masterclass in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2024. It was against Services when Shivam Dube smoked as many as 7 sixes while thumping an unbeaten 71 runs off just 36 balls as Mumbai posted 192/4 on the board in the first inning. 

The Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2024 has been a platform for many domestic batters to shine in hitting-friendly wickets. During the recent match between Mumbai and Services, Shivam Dube and Suryakumar Yadav also joined the party.

Yadav and Dube were an active part of the Indian team which had won the T20 World Cup 2024, and before the IPL 2025, both these players played in the tournament just to get into practice and regain some form.

Shivam Dubs hits raining sixes in Mumbai-Services game

Having been asked to bat first, Mumbai had a slow start, with Prithvi Shaw walking back with his second duck of the season. Ajinkya Rahane and Shreyas Iyer added 22 and 20 runs, respectively, before Suryakumar Yadav and Shivam Dube unleashed carnage.

The duo produced a series of boundaries to stitch a 130-run partnership for 4th wicket. Shivam Dube, meanwhile, was explosive and didn’t show any mercy. He slammed as many as 7 wickets and 2 boundaries to remain unbeaten on 71 off just 36 balls. He batted at a strike rate of 197.22 and guided Mumbai to a total of 192/4 at the end of the first 20 overs.

Suryakumar Yadav, on the other hand, also hammered 70 off 46 balls before Vishal Guar got his wicket.

What’s wrong with Prithvi Shaw?

Prithvi Shaw, who went unsold in the IPL 2025 mega auction despite lowering his base price to INR 75 lakhs, is unable to redeem himself in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy 2024. After a 3 balls duck against Maharashtra, Shaw was once again dismissed on a duck against Services. His technical flaws are being brutally exposed as the youngster hits a new low in his already degrading career.
