Gujarat Titans captain Hardik Pandya said David Miller's quality was never in doubt after the South African powered them to the Indian Premier League final in their debut season with victory against the Rajasthan Royals on Tuesday.
Gujarat Titans (GT) seal a spot in the final of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) here at the Eden Gardens 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 architect of GT's seven-wicket win over Rajasthan Royals in Qualifier 1. Miller played an unbeaten knock of 68 from 38 balls, supported by skipper Hardik's 40 off 27 balls, which took debutants Gujarat through to the final . "I think opportunity, firstly," said Miller at the post-match presentation, answering a question on what has changed for him. "I've been given a role, I felt extremely backed from the outset...I'm enjoying my role. I've been playing for many years now and understanding my game a lot better. In high-pressure situations, you tend to go away from your game plan, but I feel like I'm trying to keep everything together close to the game plan.
Hardik Pandya on Tuesday hailed "match-winner" David Miller after the South African batsman led newcomers Gujarat Titans in to the IPL final with a seven-wicket victory over Rajasthan Royals. Chasing 189 for victory in the first qualifier, Gujarat rode an unbeaten 106-run fourth-wicket stand between Pandya (40) and Miller (68) to achieve the target with three balls to spare in Kolkata. With 16 needed off the final over, the left-handed Miller smashed each of Prasidh Krishna's first three balls for six to bring the house down at a full capacity Eden Gardens in the first qualifier. Known as 'Killer' Miller for his big hitting, the left-hand batsman smashed three fours and five sixes in his 38-ball knock. "A lot of people counted David Miller out but for us he was always a match-winner from the time we brought him in the auction," Pandya said of the attacking batsman who has been key to Gujarat's success in their debut season.
