South Africa\u2019s middle-order batsman David Miller has termed Pakistan\u2019s Wahab Riaz as one of the fastest bowlers he has ever played.
\nTalking to a group of Pakistani journalists from Abu Dhabi in an online media conference, Miller said that he aims to make an impact for his team during his short stint with Peshawar Zalmi in the remainders of PSL6.
\n\u201cI\u2019ve had that question about who\u2019s the fastest bowler I\u2019ve ever faced, and Wahab Riaz is definitely one. I\u2019ve played against him a lot of times in my career. And he\u2019s always a competitor and I\u2019m looking forward to playing under him this next couple of games,\u201d the South African cricketer said.
\n\u201cHe wants to win. And yeah, he demands guys to be up for the challenge and putting in the hard work at training. So, I\u2019m looking forward to being a part of it. I think he\u2019s got a lot of good things, a lot of good qualities as a leader,\u201d the 31-year-old cricketer said about the Peshawar Zalmi captain and Pakistani fast-bowler, Wahab Riaz.
\nThe veteran of 134 ODIs and 81 T201 said that it is nice to be back for Pakistan Super League and he\u2019s looking forward to some action-packed matches before he flies back to South Africa for a domestic tournament.
\n\u201cI\u2019m not here for too long, just for a couple of games and just trying to make a big impact towards the team in whatever space I can for the short amount of time. I always wanted to play in this competition,\u201d he said.
\nHe further said that spinners will have a greater role during the remainders of the Pakistan Super League matches in the United Arab Emirates.
\n\u201cSpinners have been hugely valuable by picking up wickets. They go for a lot of runs but they were picking up wickets,\u201d he said.
\nReplying to a question, the South African batsman said that Pakistan has produced some really good bowlers, specifically fast bowlers.
\n\u201cThe experiences that I\u2019ve had with the Pakistan bowlers so far is that there\u2019s this huge depth, they\u2019re always producing bowlers, world-class bowlers, so it definitely does rank up. This is one of the best countries with a bowling repertoire. And, the choices are endless, it\u2019s really healthy cricket environment at the moment,\u201d Miller said about Pakistani bowling talent.
\nDavid Miller agreed with his Protease colleague Faf du Plessis that the leagues have taken over but termed it good for competition and competitiveness.
\n\u201cI think as a couple of the leagues have struggled to find the fixtures and venues because of International circuit as well. I think it would be healthy over the next couple of years to try and work out. If we can find a middle ground between the two,\u201d he said.
\n\u201cTo be honest with you. I love traveling, I love meeting different people and playing different teams and that\u2019s the joys of playing professional cricket when you get to meet all the guys in the different leagues, or the different cultures, these kind of things you get to experience,\u201d he said about playing in various leagues.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
