In the past few games, the Indian all-rounder, Shivam Dube has been feeling a lot of pressure especially after he was belted by Tim Seifert and Ross Taylor for 34 runs in an over during the fifth and final T20I match against New Zealand at Bay Oval. He has been in the headlines mostly for the wrong reasons as he became the second-most expensive bowler in the shortest format of the game.

However, former India all-rounder Yuvraj Singh feels Shivam will be getting back his form and confidence quite sooner than expected and he should be given time considering the talent that he possesses. He also said that the latter has age on his side and he is still in the learning process.

On the other hand, the Indian cricket fans have been taking a dig at Dube as he has often been found guilty of throwing his wicket away. But, Yuvraj though urged fans and critics to be a bit more patient with Shivam Dube. Talking to Sport360 during the sidelines of the Expo 2020 Dubai cricket final, Yuvraj said, “Shivam Dube I think is a good talent, but you have to give him time.”

The former India all-rounder also added saying that it would not be that easy for Hardik Pandya to find his spot back in the team soon as he has been going through the rehabilitation of his back injury.
