## Required Concepts

- Shivam Dube is a left-handed middle-order power hitter — known for big hitting, particularly sixes (122 career)
- PP SR (80.0 from 45 balls) is very low — consistent with playing deep in the order, rarely facing PP balls; above the ≥30-ball floor but limited PP deployment
- Death SR (171.5 from 267 balls) reflects his primary role as a late-innings hitter; strong sample
- Middle SR (139.6 from 978 balls) is his primary volume phase — most balls faced in overs 7–15
- Also bowled 124 career balls (5 wickets, 10.31 economy) — occasional part-time bowler

## Required Metrics

- **Career runs**: 1,859 · **Avg**: 30.48 · **SR**: 144.1 · **Sixes**: 122
- **PP SR**: 80.0 (45 balls)
- **Middle SR**: 139.6 (978 balls — highest volume phase)
- **Death SR**: 171.5 (267 balls)

## Citation Behavior

1. State 1,859 runs across 7 seasons (2019–2025) for CSK/RCB/RR.
2. Note 122 career sixes — strong power-hitting stat.
3. Phase: Death SR 171.5 from 267 balls (good sample, primary hitting phase); PP SR 80.0 from only 45 balls (limited deployment).

## Caveats

- PP balls (45) are above the ≥30-ball floor but with 80.0 SR — anomalous for a batter of his profile; consistent with rare PP appearances as a middle-lower order player.
- IPL 2026 tracked separately.
- No hundreds in 7 seasons — typically plays as a finisher rather than anchor.

## Bad Answer (do not do this)

> "Shivam Dube is primarily a Powerplay batter." *(Shivam Dube's PP strike rate (80.0 from 45 balls) is very low and reflects limited PP deployment — he bats in the middle and lower order. His primary volume is in Middle (978 balls, 139.6 SR) and Death overs (267 balls, 171.5 SR).)*
