Miller is such a player who can change the match in a few overs: Shubman Gill

On his dismissal, he said, “I thought this was the last over of the powerplay and I wanted to take full advantage of it.” I missed that ball because I tried to play too square. It was great to see our bowlers bowling. We wanted to stop them around 160-165.
