South African batter David Miller returned to bat after walking out retired hurt in the match against Gujarat Titans at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Wednesday night.
Miller had picked up an injury on his right hand during the first innings of the match, when he dived on the practice pitches to stop Sai Sudharasan’s cover drive from going to the boundary.
While Miller initially showed discomfort, he carried on fielding during the entirety of the first innings.

But after Tristan Stubbs was run out by Sai Sudharsan and with the host running out of batters, Miller heroicly came back out to bat. DC will need Miller to stay till the end to chase down GT’s total of 210.
