Mumbai: When India was in the throes of sleep after celebrating the entire night of March 8, a player was quietly returning home sitting in the upper berth of the train after making Team India the world champion. On one side, all the players were partying, while on the other side, an important player of the team quietly took a big risk of catching the train by hiding his identity. Who was this world champion and what is the whole story of his catching the train, let us tell you.
Why did Shivam Dubey leave the party?
In fact, on Sunday night, Team India hoisted the tricolor at Narendra Modi Stadium, the world’s largest cricket ground, and registered a historic victory over New Zealand in the final. Although there were many heroes of this victory, but Shivam Dubey’s role was the most important. By hitting three fours and two sixes in the 20th over and taking India’s score beyond 250, this ‘tall’ left-handed player pushed New Zealand away from victory. But Shivam Dubey did not want to waste even a moment of his time after this victory because his nursing children were waiting at home.

Why did you take the train instead of the flight?
This interesting story has been published in great detail in the Indian Express. According to the news, ‘All the flights to Mumbai were fully booked in the early hours of Monday, so Shivam Dubey decided to catch the train with his wife Anjum and a friend. India’s T20 World Cup hero knew that there was a danger of being surrounded by the crowd and a stampede could also occur as fans from every corner of the world had reached Ahmedabad to watch the final. Shivam could have gone by road also, but he knew that the train would deliver him faster.
