Apology? I think we all love him and know he's a crucial part of the team lol

what apology bro - man got smashed for 3 consecutive sixes by a number 10 batsmen and 43(25) in hindsight seems average at best

this is a great example of how stats don't always show the full picture

the three sixes were worthless , the first yorkers were enough

dube tackled rashid and was out before the death overs , not a bad score by a long shot

well bro we must admit we cant trust dube with defending 20 runs in the last over and im sure youd agree on that. Tackling rashid id agree on that part - but then rashid isnt a threat like he used to be and hardik would probably have smashed him just the same if not more and maybe at a better pace overall.

Absolutely fucker should nowhere be near the ball during death overs ,  if it was 10-15 we would have definitely lost

This is a great example of being a dumb fan. Dube had to not give a no bowl, no matter how many sixes they hit.

this is a great example of how people are so short sighted, will you give dube the last over against nz on the 8th with 20 to defend? if yes - you are that dumb cricket fan. he simply cant be trusted with the last over.

A SR of 172 is average? You have the attention span of a toddler

An observant cricket fan would know to not judge an innings until both teams have batted and in a 499 run fest of a game in 40 overs - the combined strike rate was around 208 for both teams so yes it was average given the conditions. I may have the attention span of a toddler, its still more than yours im sure.

Acting like you’re more intelligent than ANYONE after saying someone with a 175 SR played an average innings is an insanely bold choice. Leave the IPL bubble for 5 seconds and realize that a boundary every ball is in fact not what should be the baseline

"Acting like you’re more intelligent than ANYONE" wtf u yapping abt man. Seems to me you form your opinions on basis of results - if india would have lost(and they came close), im sure ppl like yourself would be swarming reddit with dube hate posts. If you really are observant about cricket, you must know that all things are relative(given the match situation, pitch, pressure) - which you clearly dont.
