South Africa’s David Miller expressed excitement for the upcoming Men’s T20 World Cup semifinal against New Zealand at Eden Gardens. South Africa has a perfect record against New Zealand in past encounters but has not met them in knockout stages before.

Miller highlighted the team’s positive campaign and individual contributions, emphasizing the need to continue their good performances. He mentioned the team’s readiness and eagerness to deliver a special performance in the upcoming game. Despite lacking World Cup experience in Kolkata, Miller mentioned relying on previous knowledge of the venue for a potentially high-scoring match.
Acknowledging the pitch conditions, Miller anticipated a good wicket and emphasized the importance of adapting quickly to the conditions. He stressed the need for a strong start to the game to apply pressure on the opposition promptly.
