Security cover in CSK reason behind my fearless unbeaten 95 v RCB: Shivam Dube

"I'm used to this wicket. So, I know if the ball is slow or turning. I was backing myself to hit the ball really well. I tried that only and was successful and then I saw how you were hitting. I tried myself and we were successful in the end also"

Chennai Super Kings' (CSK) star of the 23-run victory over in-form Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), Shivam Dube, attributed his fearless knock of unbeaten 95 (46 balls) to the "security" provided by the team management during his stay with the team.

The middle-order batter had been patchy in the four matches prior to the big 'Southern Derby' on Tuesday. In the opening game of the season against KKR, Dube managed only three and again scored three runs against SunRisers Hyderabad in the fourth match of the season. In between, he had scores of 49 (vs LSG) and 57 (vs PBKS), respectively. And, while he was scoring, the inconsistency was not really lending solidity to the middle order.
