"Shivam Dube Shut Him Up": Ex-India Star's Cheeky Response To Concussion Substitute Debates
The concussion substitute controversy was one of the biggest talking points of the recently-concluded T20I series between India and England. In the fourth T20I, Shivam Dube was replaced by Harshit Rana as a concussion substitute, with Harshit - primarily a pure pacer - deemed a like-for-like replacement for a batting all-rounder like Dube. The move was heavily criticised by players, experts and fans, with former England cricketer Kevin Pietersen being fairly outspoken about it. However, after Shivam Dube picked up two wickets in the fifth T20I, former India cricketer Robin Uthappa has jokingly hit back at Pietersen.
