#2 David Miller
The South African southpaw is a world class finisher and has proved his ability to close off games umpteen times. Thriving on the simple technique of smashing it if it’s in his arc, Miller has transformed from a slogger to a calculated hitter.
Nothing underlined it more than a brilliant hundred in a 371 run chase against Australia in Durban few months back. Miller had a tail-ender for company but kept strike and finished the game off, remaining unbeaten on 118.
Miller has been amongst the runs since then too, including another hundred against Sri Lanka at the same venue last week. Although he is out injured at the moment, Miller should be fit soon and raring to go by the time the Proteas prepare for another trophy hunt.
