In the 2023 Indian Premier League (IPL), Shivam Dube's stellar form continued during the match between Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) - CSK's last home game of the season. The match was held on a tricky pitch, where KKR spinners were wreaking havoc, and the home team batters struggled to find their footing. However, Dube, known for his six-hitting skills, remained unfazed and played fearlessly.

In his knock of 48 runs off 34 balls, Dube smashed three maximums, but one shot, in particular, caused a scare. In the 12th over of the innings, Dube hit a delivery from Suyash Sharma near long-off. The ball landed on one of the chairs near the boundary line, where KKR cheerleaders were sitting. However, the cheerleader quickly reacted and avoided any injury to herself or her colleagues.
