David Miller, born June 10, 1989, in Pietermaritzburg, is a powerful left-handed batsman renowned for his finishing abilities in white-ball cricket. A mainstay of South Africa’s ODI and T20I sides since 2010, Miller has built a reputation as one of the world’s most destructive lower-middle-order players. He announced himself with a blistering 41-ball century in a T20I against Bangladesh in 2017 — the fastest T20I century by a South African. Nicknamed “Killer Miller,” his ability to chase down targets or accelerate in the death overs has made him a go-to player in pressure situations. He has scored over 4,000 runs in ODIs and more than 2,000 in T20Is, with several match-winning innings across both formats. Miller has been a franchise cricket regular, featuring in leagues like the IPL, CPL, and PSL. His stints with Kings XI Punjab, Rajasthan Royals, and Gujarat Titans in the IPL have included numerous standout knocks, including crucial contributions to Gujarat’s 2022 IPL title win. Despite his aggressive style, Miller is known for his professionalism, fitness, and leadership. He has occasionally captained the national side and continues to be a senior presence in the dressing room. Off the field, he’s involved in youth cricket development and animal conservation efforts in South Africa.
