Miller ready to play any role for Conrad

PROTEAS middle-order batter David Miller.

Seldom has the southpaw needed to look over his shoulder at any contenders for his place. This is backed up by the fact that he is the most capped Protea in T20Is, and boasts the enviable record as the second highest run-scorer in the shortest format for the national team.

Yet, there was a sense of nervousness, not seen since his debut all the way back in 2010, prevalent when Miller addressed the media ahead of the five-match T20I series against India, starting in Cuttack today.

“It has been forever,” Miller said. “I think my last game was a ICC Champions Trophy earlier in the year, so it's been a long time. I literally got here two days ago and I only met the guys yesterday for the first time. I'm looking forward to getting in the mix and just participating in whatever I need to and helping out where I can and contributing where I can as well.”
