Shameful! Shivam Dubey completed the over in 11 balls, line-length deteriorated, also gave away 46 runs.

New Delhi: India defeated Zimbabwe by 72 runs in the second Super-8 of ICC T20 World Cup 2026. In the match, Team India, batting first, scored 256 runs in the stipulated 20 overs, but while defending it, the Indian bowlers also gave away 184 runs. The most disappointing performance in bowling was of Shivam Dubey. Shivam Dubey bowled only 2 overs in the innings, but his line length was so bad that he gave away 46 runs.

Not only this, when Shivam came to bowl his first over, it took him 11 balls to complete it. Had Shivam bowled one more wide or no ball, he would have had a dozen balls. Shivam spent a total of 26 runs in his first over. Shivam, who came to bowl the 15th over of the innings, scored 16 runs in the first 4 balls. In such a situation, in an attempt to avoid being beaten, he bowled 3 wides and 1 no ball. Somehow he bowled the last ball to end the over, on which another six was hit. In this way he gave away 26 runs in the very first over.

Shivam got 20 in the second over.

After getting beaten in the first over, Shivam was asked by the captain to bowl the last over. Although the match was completely in favor of Team India, Shivam Dubey could not control the line length even in the second over of his spell. Shivam Dubey spent 20 runs in his second over also. To complete his over, he bowled a total of 8 balls.

In Shivam’s last over, Zimbabwe’s batsmen hit 2 sixes and 1 four. Shivam also bowled a wide and a no ball in this over. However, he was lucky that somehow he got one wicket in his account, but Sanju Samson’s role in it was more than that of Shivam. Because Sanju took a brilliant catch behind the wicket.
