He returned to the sport at the age of 19 after improving his fitness, and he was quickly selected for the Mumbai Under-23 squad.

He later made his List A debut for Mumbai in the 2016–17 Vijay Hazare Trophy on 25 February 2017.

Who are Shivam Dube Parents?

Shivam Dube’s parents are Rajesh Dube and Mashuri Dubi. His father, Rajesh Dube, migrated from UP to Mumbai in search of better job opportunities and worked hard to build a life for his family.

Shivam Dube Father – Rajesh Dube

Rajesh Dube is originally from the Bhadohi district in Uttar Pradesh and later moved to Mumbai for work. He began with a dairy business before starting a jeans factory. He is now a retired businessman who proudly watches his son represent India.

Rajesh Dube is the first coach of Indian cricketer Shivam Dube. A former wrestler, Rajesh recognized Shivam’s cricket talent at the age of four and personally trained him for over 20 years, often practicing with him from morning to evening. He massaged Shivam with mustard oil daily to build his strength and physique.

Rajesh set up a turf pitch in their backyard and gave hundreds of throwdowns himself, believing firmly that his son was destined to play top-level cricket. Even during financial hardships that forced the closure of his jeans factory and a five-year break from Shivam’s cricket, Rajesh never gave up. Despite the struggles, Rajesh says his only wish is simple: “Just open for India, this is my one wish” (My only wish is to see him play for India).
