"Felt Extremely Backed": David Miller Reveals Secret Behind His Success For Gujarat Titans
After helping Gujarat Titans to seal a spot in the final of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 on Tuesday, star batter David Miller said continued backing from the team has played a big role in improving his game in this season. Miller was the chief creator of GT's brilliant seven-wicket win over Rajasthan Royals. The South African played a ballistic knock of 68 from 38 balls and along with captain Hardik Pandya's 40 off 27 balls, guided IPL debutants Gujarat Titans to a seven-wicket win over the inaugural champions Rajasthan Royals at the Eden Gardens.

IPL 2022: Dinesh Karthik is 'that rock' of the side, says RCB's Mike Hesson
Indian Premier League (IPL) side Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) has revealed that when South African stalwart AB de Villiers decided to quit the team and announced his retirement at the end of the 2021 season, the team was taken aback. But the way wicketkeeper-batter Dinesh Karthik has shaped up this season, he has become "that rock" of the side. "DK (Dinesh Karthik) has probably been that rock. When you miss a guy like AB (de Villiers), we talked about how you are going to replace AB and now we are not doing that, but he (Karthik) has been exceptional in terms of finishing," said Mike Hesson, RCB's director of cricket operations, on RCB Bold diaries before the Eliminator against Lucknow Super Giants at the Eden Gardens here later on Wednesday. The last few games played by RCB witnessed their batters putting up a fine show while their much-talked about top order sprang back to life in the last league game against Gujarat Titans. With the team keeping its hopes alive of making it to the final, Hesson felt that a collaborative effort from Virat Kohli, skipper Faf du Plessis and Glenn Maxwell helped the side tame the Titans.
