IPL 2017 Player Battles: Top 4 player encounters to look for in the Kings XI Punjab vs Rising Pune Supergiant match

#3 David Miller vs Imran Tahir

How will Miller deal with his countryman Imran Tahir?

It will be another battle featuring two wonderful players from the same country. Miller, who has been an integral part of the KXIP squad for a number of years, will be up against Imran Tahir, who is the latest inclusion in the RPS squad.

The leg-spinner began on a brilliant note in the first game against MI where he picked up three wickets for 28 runs and was the pick of the bowlers for his side. His spell was crucial in halting Mumbai’s progress.

Miller, on the other hand, would be playing his first game and hoping for a good start to the season. He must have faced Tahir several times in the nets in the past and would know of all the tricks that he possesses. But Tahir is the number one T20 bowler for a reason and he must be having a few tricks to tackle Killer Miller.
