The Indian T20 World Cup team will be largely determined by the results of the 2024 Indian Premier League. Later in April, the Ajit Agarkar-led BCCI selection committee is anticipated to choose a 15-player team for the T20 championship, which the USA and the West Indies will co-host in June. There is competition for a number of slots, particularly in the middle order, but one player has made a strong case for himself with his impressive performance for the Chennai Super Kings. For the defending champions, Shivam Dube has been in excellent form, amassing 148 runs at a strike rate of 160.87 from four innings, including a rapid half-century.

He carried up his outstanding run on Friday against the Sunrisers Hyderabad, batting on a pitch that other CSK hitters found difficult to get going. Dube used two fours and four sixes to score 45 off of 24. Former Indian cricket players have endorsed Dube for a place in the country's World Cup team as a result of his most recent performance.

Former Indian Legends Hails Shivam Dube:

Legendary batsman for India Virender Sehwag believes that Dube ought to be traveling for the World Cup and that he has placed pressure on players like Rishabh Pant, KL Rahul, Suryakumar Yadav, and Shreyas Iyer. The renowned all-rounder Yuvraj Singh believes Dube has what it takes to be India's breakthrough player.

“The kind of form he’s (Dube) in, his ticket for the T20 World Cup should be confirmed. He’s put a lot of players under pressure be it Shreyas Iyer, KL Rahul, Suryakumar Yadav or other middle order batters. Even Rishabh Pant. Others will have to perform consistently now if they want T20 World Cup. And that should be the way forward pick those who are in form.” ~ Sehwag said.

England Legend’s Opinion:

Michael Vaughan, the former captain of England, has pushed Agarkar to make the audacious decision to include Dube in the squad.

“This is where Ajit Agarkar can be brave. Whoever he picks, it will be a formidable team. I think it is the right time to be brave and pick a not-so-well-known names.” ~Vaughan said on Cricbuzz.
