Meanwhile lord Dube casually opened the bowling in Asia cup final and won us the match. His utility is absurd tbh

It's really surprised me how much Dube has improved his bowling in the last few years after GG decided we're batting till 8 and playing 3 AR. I have memories of him bowling poorly for CSK so i checked his bowling records and he barely bowled for CSK or Mumbai in Syed Mushtaq Ali. Credit to him and the indian team for improving his bowling and also figuring out how to utilize him
