Shivam Dube, riding high on recent form and anticipation for the T20 World Cup, suffered a devastating setback during the 49th match of IPL 2024. Dube, who had been a standout performer for the Chennai Super Kings (CSK), faced a bitter dismissal, departing for a golden duck.

Entering the crease at number 3, replacing the departing Ajinkya Rahane, Dube faced off against Harpreet Brar of PBKS. In a crucial moment for CSK, invited to bat first, Dube’s early departure came as a blow to their aspirations.

The dismissal unfolded dramatically as Dube, known for his aggressive batting, attempted a slog sweep only to miss the ball completely. The umpire's finger was raised swiftly, signaling an LBW dismissal. Despite a review, replays confirmed the unfortunate truth: Dube's innings had ended before it could even begin.

CSK's strategy to utilize Dube's prowess against spinners backfired as he fell victim to Brar's delivery. The disappointment was palpable as Dube, a key player in CSK's campaign, failed to make an impact in this crucial encounter.

This dismissal not only affected CSK's immediate prospects in the match but also raised concerns about Dube's form ahead of the T20 World Cup. With the tournament looming, Dube’s failure to convert this opportunity into runs adds pressure on both him and the team management.

At the time of writing, CSK at 76 for 3 in 11 overs.
