Shivam Dube remains a vital cog in India’s T20 set-up and bowling coach Morne Morkel wants the Mumbai all-rounder to step up as a back-up medium pacer ahead of the T20 World Cup. “For me, it’s always important to see a guy like Shivam that can bowl four overs,” Morkel told Indian mediapersons.
“I’m always pushing for all-rounders to work hard on both skills. Sometimes guys can get a little bit naughty in practice and focus just on one. Here in this environment, we want to leave no stone unturned,” the former Proteas fast bowler said.
