Shivam Dube's Blistering 65 Goes in Vain as New Zealand Beat India by 50 Runs

  • Shivam Dube scored a sensational 65 runs off just 23 balls, including plundering 29 runs off an Ish Sodhi over.
  • Dube's innings featured the third fastest T20I half-century by an Indian, reaching 50 in only 15 deliveries.
  • Despite Dube's heroics, India failed to chase New Zealand's target of 216, losing the 4th T20I by 50 runs.
  • Dube was unfortunately run out at the non-striker's end, which led to India losing their last four wickets for only 20 runs.
  • New Zealand, after being put to bat, posted 215/7, with strong contributions from Tim Seifert, Devon Conway, and Daryl Mitchell.

Why It Matters: Shivam Dube's explosive 65-run knock was not enough to secure a win for India against New Zealand.
