David Miller was the team’s last hope
After all the stalwarts were out, all the hopes of the Gujarat camp were pinned on David Miller. Everyone knows how deadly a batsman David Miller is. He started attacking the bowlers as soon as he arrived. But when he was playing after scoring 21 runs, he hit his 16th ball hard and sent the ball flying into the air. Taking the catch was not looking easy but then Ajinkya Rahane jumped on the ball like a leopard and took an amazing catch by diving with both his hands. As soon as David Miller took this catch, there was disappointment in the entire Gujarat camp.
