India’s T20 World Cup squad selection is heating up as the IPL 2024 season progresses, with players like Rishabh Pant and Shivam Dube making strong cases for their inclusion.

Despite a strong performance from openers Ruturaj Gaikwad and Shivam Dube, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) fell short against Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), losing by six wickets. LSG’s Marcus Stoinis played a pivotal role with an unbeaten 124, overshadowing Gaikwad’s 108 and Dube’s 66. CSK head coach Stephan Fleming acknowledges areas of discomfort and is seeking the right combination of players to improve the team’s performance.
Virender Sehwag has left Hardik Pandya out of his Team India’s Playing XI for the T20 World Cup 2024, opting instead for Shivam Dube or Rinku Singh at No. 6. The former India opener, who revealed his XI on the ‘Club Prairie Fire’ podcast, named Yashasvi Jaiswal, Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Suryakumar Yadav and Rishabh Pant as his top five. Sehwag’s exclusion of Pandya, who has had a poor IPL 2024 campaign, is a talking point, while Dube’s recent form has earned him a place in the XI. Rinku Singh, who has also done well for India lately, is the other option for the No. 6 spot. Sehwag’s XI also includes Sandeep Sharma, who has impressed with his bowling in this year’s IPL. With India set to be without Mohammed Shami for the World Cup, the veteran seamer could provide cover for Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj.
Former Indian pacer Irfan Pathan has released his expected list of 15 players for the upcoming ICC men’s T20 World Cup.

Notable exclusions include KL Rahul, Ravichandran Ashwin, Dinesh Karthik, and Bhuvneshwar Kumar. The BCCI selection board is set to meet after the DC vs. MI IPL 2023 match on April 27 to announce the squad. The final deadline set by the ICC is May 1.
Shivam Dube has become a crucial asset to the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) lineup, surpassing the 1000-run mark in his IPL career for the franchise. His recent performance against the Lucknow Super Giants, where he scored a blistering 27-ball 66 with a strike rate of 244.44, highlighted his exceptional batting prowess. This milestone not only solidifies Dube’s position within the CSK team but also makes him a strong candidate for a spot in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 squad.
Former all-rounder Suresh Raina and commentator Simon Doull have endorsed Shivam Dube’s selection for the Indian T20 World Cup 2024 squad based on his impressive performance for Chennai Super Kings in IPL 2024. Dube’s blistering half-century against Lucknow Super Giants, which included 10 boundaries, propelled CSK to a commanding total. With over 1000 runs in IPL, Dube has demonstrated his batting prowess. Doull believes Dube outperforms Hardik Pandya, who has faced criticism for his performance with Mumbai Indians, in terms of batting ability.
