New Delhi: For the first 30 overs of the first T20I, Rishabh Pant would have believed that his first game as India captain was a perfect one. Then David Miller happened. Needing 126 runs in 10 overs to chase down the 212-run target set by India, Miller and Rassie van der Dussen finished with an unbeaten 131-run partnership to end India's streak of T20I wins with five balls to spare.
Miller, with his unbeaten 31ball 64, has shown he is in a zone where he can chase down any target with consummate ease, as he has been doing over the past two months for Gujarat Titans in the IPL. The excruciating heat and the vocal packed house at Ferozeshah Kotla were both overcome by the chasing genius of Miller, who allowed Dussen to take his time and then unleash himself on the Indian bowling attack at the back end of the chase.
Shreyas Iyer dropped a sitter off Dussen's bat at deep mid-wicket when he was on 25 and the Indian team rued it big time.
