I with New Zealand in the final- Miller

David Miller, who came to the press conference after facing a 50 -run defeat in the semi -finals to New Zealand, made a shocking statement. In fact, all the matches of India were held in Dubai, while all other teams were played in Lahore, Karachi and Rawalpindi in Pakistan.

At the same time, on Saturday (March 1), South Africa defeated England by 7 wickets. She then left for Dubai at 4 pm on Sunday, so that she could prepare before the semi -finals, but after the New Zealand's defeat it was decided that on March 5, South Africa had to face New Zealand in the semi -finals with New Zealand, due to which the next morning (March 3) had to come again at 7 pm. Miller said that

"This is just an hour or 40 -minute flight, but we had to do so." It was morning and we played the match with England earlier.

After this, on Sunday, we had to fly to Dubai at 4 pm and had to come back at 7 am the next morning. David Miller said that it is not that we had to travel for 5 hours or we did not have enough time to recover before the match. But still it was not completely justified. Miller also said that I will be fully honest with the New Zealand team and I will support Kavis in the final.
