South Africa's team had been losing in big ICC matches for 32 years. Despite having a strong team, it could reach the semi-finals at most, but this time its players changed history. For the first time, South Africa's team was playing the final of an ICC tournament. After Heinrich Klaasen's explosive innings, it seemed that this time the T20 World Cup trophy was certain. The team had to score only 30 runs in 30 balls, after which Klaasen got out and the responsibility of the match fell on David Miller. However, he could not win the match for South Africa and the team lost a big opportunity.
Now it is being claimed that he has announced his retirement.Heinrich Klaasen made the match one-sided by scoring 52 runs in 27 balls in the T20 World Cup final. After this, he got out. After his dismissal, South Africa had to score 26 runs in 23 balls. At that time, David Miller was the only batsman left on the crease from South Africa. He had the responsibility to finish the match. He took it to the end, but became the victim of a brilliant catch on the ball of Hardik Pandya. He was seen crying after getting out. Meanwhile, it is being claimed that he has retired from T20 International.
Usually when any player takes such a big decision, he announces it by issuing a statement on social media. Apart from this, the cricket board of his team also announces it. Nothing like this has been seen in Miller's case. Miller made the last post on Instagram before the final. At the same time, nothing like this has been seen in his Insta stories as well. Apart from this, the South Africa Cricket Board has also not given any information about this. Neither has any of his fellow players confirmed this. Looking at all these things, it can be said that a big lie has spread on social media about him.
David Miller's performance in the T20 World Cup was excellent. During the group stage, he pulled the team out of difficult situations many times and won the match single-handedly. While batting first, he also finished well at the end. However, he could not do this in the final. While chasing 177 runs against India, he could score only 21 runs in 17 balls. Miller is 35 years old and has played a total of 125 T20 International matches so far. He scored 2437 runs in 109 innings, which includes 2 centuries and 7 half-centuries.
During this, his strike rate has been 140. During this, his strike rate has been 140.
