Shivam Dube, an all-rounder for Team India and Mumbai, will likely miss the rest of the Ranji season owing to a side strain injury. He was rested for Mumbai’s group-stage match against Chhatisgarh before returning to the squad in the final group game against Assam and hitting an undefeated century in a comprehensive victory.
In the current Ranji Trophy season, he has contributed 407 runs in five matches at an average of 67.83 while also taking 12 wickets.

“Dube has a bilateral side strain injury, and is likely to be out of the rest of the Ranji Trophy season. He suffered the injury while batting during the last match against Assam (he scored 121 not out), and didn’t come out to field in Assam’s second innings at BKC. He has a grade one tear. Musheer Khan (the teenaged allrounder did well for the India Under-19 team in the U-19 World Cup in South Africa recently) is likely to be his replacement.”

As a top runner in the 2024 U-19 World Cup in South Africa, Musheer Khan has only played three first-class matches. His debut was in 2022. In five plays, he managed 96 runs and an average of 19.20.
The selection panel might gather to choose the Mumbai team for the impending Ranji Trophy quarter-final. They’ll be playing against Baroda. The game has been set for Friday, February 23.

Following Hardik Pandya injury during the 2023 ODI World Cup, Shivam Dube became Team India’s primary all-rounder in the shortest format.
He took advantage of the chance, scoring consecutive fifties in the home T20I series against Afghanistan in January 2024 and being considered for the T20 World Cup roster.

Shivam Dube hopes to be healthy for the 2024 IPL season, which begins in a month. He was vital in CSK’s record-tying sixth title victory in the 2023 season.
