The 2024 T20 World Cup has been filled with thrilling moments, and the match between India and USA in New York’s (Big Apple) was no exception. In the first innings, Indian all-rounder Shivam Dube’s bowling came under the spotlight, and unfortunately, it didn’t quite live up to expectations. The usually reliable bowler was introduced to the attack in the 8th over, but his very first delivery was met with severe punishment from USA batsman.

USA batter Steven Taylor, known for his powerful strokes, took Dube’s hard-length delivery flat over the mid-wicket fence, striking a security personnel on the chest. The six was a stunning display of power, sending shockwaves through the Indian camp. The individual, fortunately, appeared to be fine, but it was clear he hadn’t seen the ball coming.
