Shivam Dube (born 25 June 1993) is an Indian international cricketer who plays for Mumbai in domestic cricket and the Chennai Super Kings in the Indian Premier League (IPL). An all-rounder who bats left-handed and bowls right-arm at medium pace, Dube is known for his ability to hit massive sixes.[2] He made his international debut for the India cricket team in November 2019.[3] He was a member of the Indian team that won the 2024 T20 World Cup, and played a crucial knock of 27 runs out of 16 balls at a strike rate of 168.75 in the final against South Africa.

Shivam Dube was born on 26 June 1993 in Mumbai, India. His father Rajesh Dube hails from Bhadohi district in Uttar Pradesh and had migrated to Mumbai for work.[4]

Dube played school cricket for Hansraj Morarji Public School but had to stop playing at the age of 14 as he was overweight and unable to work on his fitness due to financial constraints. He returned to play at the age of 19 and was soon selected for the Mumbai Under-23s.[5][6][7]

He made his Twenty20 debut for Mumbai in the 2015–16 Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy on 18 January 2016.[8] He made his List A debut for Mumbai in the 2016–17 Vijay Hazare Trophy on 25 February 2017.[9]

He made his first-class debut for Mumbai in the 2017–18 Ranji Trophy on 7 December 2017.[10] In the first innings, he took his maiden five-wicket haul in first-class cricket.[11] On 2 November 2018, in Mumbai's match against Railways in the 2018–19 Ranji Trophy, he scored his maiden century in first-class cricket.[12] In his next match, against Karnataka, he took another five-wicket haul, with seven wickets for 54 runs.[13] On 17 December 2018, in the Ranji Trophy match against Baroda, Dube hit five sixes in one over.[14] It was the second time he had scored five sixes in an over, after doing it against Pravin Tambe in the Mumbai T20 League in March,[15] where he was also named the player of the tournament.[16] He was the leading wicket-taker for Mumbai in the Ranji Trophy in 2018, with 23 dismissals in eight matches.[17]

In December 2018, he was bought by the Royal Challengers Bangalore in the player auction for the 2019 Indian Premier League.[18][19] In February 2021, Dube was bought by the Rajasthan Royals in the IPL auction ahead of the 2021 Indian Premier League.[20] In February 2022, he was bought by the Chennai Super Kings in the auction for the 2022 Indian Premier League tournament.[21]

He was retained by CSK for 4 crores in the 2023 Indian Premier League.[22][23] He scored 418 runs in 264 balls during the season, with an average strike rate of 158.33, and an average score of 38.[24][25] His best performance of the season came against his former team RCB, when he scored 52 runs in 27 balls.[26] He went on to win the season with CSK by scoring 32 runs in 21 balls in the final, without losing his wicket.[27]

In the 2024 edition of the Indian Premier League, he was retained by CSK for 4 crores.[28] He scored 51 runs in 23 balls against Gujarat Titans in the second match of the season. He was awarded the Player of the Match for this performance.[29][30]
