David Miller was dismissed by Varun Aaron for Kings XI Punjab against Royal Challengers Bangalore in their match in IPL 2014. Harshal Patel came on to bowl the 18th over, and was immediately hit for six by Mitchell Johnson off the first ball. The next delivery was struck firmly down the ground, but it deflected off Patel to prevent a boundary. Patel had Saha out off the final ball.
Varun Aaron started the 17th over poorly, as David Miller hit him for a boundary off the first ball, but was caught brilliantly by Chahal off the third delivery. There was some confusion over whether that was a legitimate delivery, as Aaron looked like he may have over-stepped, but the benefit of the doubt went to the bowler on this occasion. Aaron ended the over well, going for just seven runs off it.
Harshal Patel, bowling the 16th over, was plundered by David “Killer” Miller. He was hit for two sixes and a four off the first three balls, before going for another six off the last ball, this time by Saha to make it 26 runs off the over.
Earlier, David Miller kept the runs flowing for Kings XI Punjab against Royal Challengers Bangalore in their match in IPL 2014. Albie Morkel, who was bowling very well, continued for his final over. After Saha could get just three runs off the first four balls, David Miller came on strike. He was unable to spoil Morkel’s figures, getting only another single off the fifth ball. Morkel ended with excellent figures of 4-0-20-1.
Chahal came in for his final over, the 14th of the innings, and kept things typically tight for the over. He mixed his pace and line well to go for only five off the over.
Mitchell Starc came in to bowl the 13th over, and continued to bowl quick. Miller managed to hit a short and wide ball for another boundary off the fourth delivery off the over, before launching the fifth ball for another boundary over long odd, and slicing the final ball through point to make it three boundaries in three balls.

Punjab made a good start to their innings. It was Virender Sehwag, swashbuckling opener who started the boundary count with a flick shot. He was at his best when he smashed Albie Morkel for a boundary. It was a trademark square cut from Sehwag. He also thwacked Harshal Patel over Mid off for a boundary. His young partner, Mandeep Singh wasn’t to be left behind, as he too played a fine shot or two off Mitchell Starc, the left-arm swing bowler from Australia.
