Miller's Bold Call Backfires in DC's Agonizing GT Surrender
David Miller turns down that single with two runs still to get off the last two balls. DC collapses to 209 chasing 210.
Delhi Capitals blew it by a single run against Gujarat Titans right there at Arun Jaitley Stadium. They had victory in their grasp during that last over—then crumbled. Down to two runs off two balls, David Miller turned down the single. Dot ball. Run-out. DC finished at 209/8, chasing GT's 210/4.
Earlier, Miller smashed plenty. Still, that call kicked off all the talk. Axar Patel, the skipper, backed it. Pathum Nissanka did too. Sunil Gavaskar liked the thinking, even if Prasidh Krishna's slower bouncer didn't quite get finished off.
Rashid Khan ran the show for GT. Back strong after surgery—3/17. Broke DC's middle order flat.
DC's had these nail-biters before. Harsha Bhogle says the bones of their side still point toward playoffs.
