India cruised to a mammoth victory in the final T20I against England at the Wankhede on Sunday set up by an Abhishek Sharma ton for the record books as the opener ended with 135 off just 54 deliveries, striking 13 maximums in the process. With England forced to go route one from the very go in a chase of 248, wickets quickly tumbled and before long found themselves at 82/4. However, a belligerent Phil Salt was still going strong having brought up a 21-ball half-century when Suryakumar Yadav introduced Shivam Dube into the attack to add further to the clash's exhilerating narrative.
In the previous encounter, India had replaced Shivam Dube with bowling all-rounder Harshit Rana as a concussion substitute and the move came under heavy scrutiny after the pacer finished with match-winning figures of 3/33, with doubt projected over whether it was a like-for-like change as required by the laws of the game.
Dube, however, remained unperturbed and took pace off his very first delivery wide of off stump to earn a nick from Salt's bat and dispatch the opener for 54. The 31-year-old later castled Jacob Bethell as well to end with impressive figures of 2/11 from his two overs and Twitterati was quick to throw all the criticism back their rival's way for maligning Dube's bowling abilities.
Oh!! WOWW!!
