Few IPL careers have changed direction as sharply as Shivam Dube’s. On the eve of the 2019 auction he struck five sixes in a single over for Mumbai against Baroda, and Royal Challengers Bengaluru responded by paying ₹5 crore for an uncapped all-rounder. What followed was two seasons of struggle: 169 runs in 15 matches, a release, and then a one-year stop at Rajasthan Royals that added just 230 more. By the end of 2021, Shivam Dube’s IPL stats read like an expensive experiment.
Chennai Super Kings saw something else. They bought him for ₹4 crore at the 2022 mega auction and rebuilt him into one of the league’s most feared middle-order spin-hitters. The numbers since tell the story of Shivam Dube IPL stats in full: 2,129 career runs at a strike rate of 145.42, 137 sixes, an IPL 2023 title with CSK, and a ₹12 crore retention that made him one of the league’s most valuable Indian all-rounders. He crossed 2,000 IPL runs in April 2026 and remains central to CSK’s middle order under Ruturaj Gaikwad.

Who Is Shivam Dube?
Shivam Dube is an Indian all-rounder from Mumbai, born 26 June 1993. He is a left-handed middle-order batter and a right-arm medium-pace bowler who broke through in domestic cricket with Mumbai, winning the Lala Amarnath Award for his all-round exploits in the 2018-19 Ranji Trophy season. His power against spin and clean hitting made him a T20 prospect, and he has gone on to represent India in T20Is and ODIs, including a place in India’s ICC T20 World Cup-winning squad in 2024.
In the IPL he is best known as CSK’s middle-overs enforcer. Standing tall in the crease, he targets spinners and takes the long boundary on with a pull and a lofted straight drive that have made him one of the league’s leading six-hitters. With the ball he is an occasional option — CSK rarely call on him, though he has bowled more for India than for his franchise.

| 2019 | Royal Challengers Bangalore | Bought at auction (₹5 crore) |
| 2020 | Royal Challengers Bangalore | Retained (₹5 crore) |
| 2021 | Rajasthan Royals | Bought at auction (₹4.4 crore) |

| 2026 | Chennai Super Kings | Retained (₹12 crore) |
| 2027 | Chennai Super Kings (expected) | Not officially confirmed; retention deadline 15 November 2026 |
Dube’s team story is really two careers. The first, at RCB and RR, produced 399 runs in three seasons and ended in release. The second began when CSK bought him for ₹4 crore in 2022 and never looked back: 1,730 of his 2,129 career runs have come in yellow, and the franchise has retained him every year since, tripling his price to ₹12 crore ahead of the 2025 mega auction.

| Bowling | 1.0 | 14 | 1 | 1/14 | 14.00 | 14.00 |
IPL 2024 was Dube’s most destructive season. His strike rate of 162.30 was the best of his career and he struck 28 sixes — as many fours, which says everything about his method. He was CSK’s designated accelerator through the middle overs, earning Player of the Match honours against Gujarat Titans along the way.
Shivam Dube IPL 2025 Stats
| Category | M | Inn | Runs | HS | Avg | SR | 50s | 100s | 4s | 6s |

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bowling | 2.0 | 33 | 0 | 0/33 | – | 16.50 |
His first season on a ₹12 crore contract came with a changed role. CSK finished bottom of the table, the top order collapsed repeatedly, and Dube was asked to stabilise rather than simply attack. His 357 runs made him CSK’s leading run-scorer of the season — ahead of team-mates including Ravindra Jadeja, who also carried extra batting responsibility — but the strike rate of 132.22 was his lowest since joining the franchise, reflecting the rescue jobs he was asked to do.
Shivam Dube IPL 2026 Stats

| Bowling | 5.0 | 64 | 1 | – | 64.00 | 12.80 |
Back up the order with clearer plans, Dube bounced back in 2026. His 270 runs came at 158.82 — his second-best seasonal strike rate — and on 26 April 2026, against Gujarat Titans at Chepauk, he crossed 2,000 IPL runs. His final appearance of the season, away to Gujarat Titans in May, summed up his value: 47 off 17 balls. He bowled more than usual in 2026, sending down five overs including his one wicket of the campaign.

Shivam Dube IPL 2027 Team and Price
Shivam Dube remains on Chennai Super Kings’ books from the 2025–27 retention cycle, so he is expected to play for CSK in IPL 2027. However, his retention for the 2027 season is not officially confirmed as of 7 October 2026: franchises must submit their final retention lists by 15 November 2026, and the mini-auction — the last of the 2023–27 cycle — is scheduled for December 2026 in Goa, confirmed by the BCCI. There are no verified trade or release announcements involving him. His price for 2027 is not officially confirmed; the last confirmed figure is the ₹12 crore at which CSK retained him ahead of the IPL 2025 mega auction. For the wider context, the site’s IPL 2027 retention deadline, rules and purse guide and IPL 2027 auction date, venue and time explain the timeline franchises are working to.

Shivam Dube IPL Highest Score
His career-best IPL knock remains the unbeaten 95 off 46 balls against Royal Challengers Bengaluru in April 2022 at Pune. Coming in with CSK in trouble, he shared a 165-run third-wicket stand with Robin Uthappa and launched eight sixes, one a 102-metre monster off Josh Hazlewood, to nearly carry his side home. The innings announced his CSK reinvention in a single evening: before it he was a ₹4 crore gamble; after it he was undroppable.
Shivam Dube IPL Wickets and Best Bowling
Dube’s six IPL wickets are spread thinly: four in 2020 with RCB, and one each in 2024 and 2026 with CSK. His best figures, 2/15, came during the 2020 season in the UAE. He has never bowled more than nine overs in a single IPL season, which explains why his franchise reputation rests entirely on his batting — the “all-rounder” tag reflects his India role and domestic record more than his IPL usage.
Shivam Dube IPL Batting Records
- 137 IPL sixes — the sixth-most by any Indian in IPL history.
- Fastest Indian to 100 IPL sixes, reaching the mark ahead of several specialist power-hitters.
- No IPL century, but 10 fifties and a career strike rate of 145.42 across 92 matches.
- 2024 strike rate of 162.30 — his best in a single season.
- Of his 2,129 runs, 1,730 have come for CSK — when he crossed 2,000 IPL runs in April 2026, no other batter with 1,000-plus runs for the franchise had a 140-plus strike rate.

Shivam Dube IPL Records and Achievements
- IPL 2023 champion with Chennai Super Kings — 418 runs at 158.33 in the title season, and scored crucial runs in the rain-affected final against Gujarat Titans.
- Fastest Indian to 100 IPL sixes.
- 2,000 IPL runs, reached on 26 April 2026 against Gujarat Titans at Chepauk.
- ₹12 crore retention (2025) — the fourth-highest CSK retention that year, ahead of MS Dhoni.
- Part of India’s ICC T20 World Cup 2024-winning squad and the Asia Cup 2025-winning squad.
- CSK’s leading run-scorer in IPL 2025 (357 runs) despite the team’s last-place finish.
Shivam Dube’s IPL Performance Analysis
The numbers divide cleanly into two eras. Before CSK: 24 matches, 399 runs at an average of about 22 and a strike rate barely above 120 — a player who could not buy a start. At CSK: 68 matches, 1,730 runs, average close to 35, strike rate near 153. That is not incremental improvement; it is a role transformation. CSK gave him a fixed slot in the middle overs, told him to attack spin, and stopped asking him to bowl.
The 2025 dip is the interesting case. His strike rate fell nearly 30 points to 132.22, yet he finished as the team’s top scorer. The reason is role, not decline: with the top order failing around him, he played long rescue innings — 43 not out off 37 against Lucknow, 45 off 40 against Kolkata — rather than the 20-ball cameos of previous years. In 2026, with the order steadier, the old aggression returned: 158.82, his second-best seasonal strike rate.
What remains unresolved is the century column. His 95* remains his best, and his game — 137 sixes against 132 fours — is built for impact over duration. As he moves into his mid-thirties, CSK’s retention call before the November 2026 deadline will rest on one calculation: whether the most destructive middle-order spin-hitter in the squad is worth a premium retention slot again.
