Harsh Dubey continues to impress the veterans with his exceptional skills in the Indian Premier League after shaking up the domestic realm. Dubey was brought in as a replacement by the Sunrisers Hyderabad, and he emerged as one of the biggest steals for his performance against the Kolkata Knight Riders.

Harsh went 3 for 34 runs in the franchise's final match of the season, effectively tumbling the defending champs. Tom Moody was mighty impressed with his presentation and envisioned the 22-year-old left-arm spinner as a red-ball bowler more than T20, suggesting that he was built for the format.

"I see him as a Test bowler as much as a T20 bowler. I look at him and think, 'wow, imagine facing this guy on a turning track'," Tom Moody said during an appearance on ESPNCricinfo's Timeout Show.
