There are a few genuine seam bowling all-rounders in the Indian domestic circuit, and Dube is one of them. He made his first-class debut for Mumbai in the 2017/18 Ranji season. In the first innings of his debut match, Dube took his first fifer and decimated the Karnataka middle order with his seam bowling. 

The following year, Dube scored his maiden first class century playing against the Railways. He came into the limelight in a 2018/19 Ranji match against Baroda , where he hit five sixes in an over. He finished the Ranji season as the highest wicket taker for Mumbai with 23 scalps in eight matches. 

Dube was roped in by the Royal Challengers Bangalore ahead of the 2019 IPL season. A lot was expected of him, but the attacking batter was disappointing to say the least. He registered 40 and 129 in the 2019 and 2020 season, respectively, and as a result, Dube was released by the franchise.

After having back-to-back good seasons with Mumbai, Dube was given a chance to make his T20I debut against Bangladesh in Delhi. 

In December 2019, Dube was given the opportunity to make a name for himself in the ODI format. He made his debut against the Windies and scored just 9 runs as India lost the match.

In the fifth T20I match against the Kiwis in 2020, Dube bowled the most expensive over in a T20I match, conceding 34 runs. 

Ahead of the IPL 2021, Dube was bought by the Rajasthan Royals for INR 4.40 crore.

A talented left-handed player, Dube clearly has the talent to succeed, but he needs to work on certain aspects of his game to cement his place in the Indian team. He was brought in the team to give tough competition to Hardik Pandya, but Dube has not lived up to the hype that was generated, and now he needs to perform heavily in the domestic circuit to have a chance of donning the Indian jersey.
