Stubbs, who played a crucial role in guiding the chase alongside Miller he scored 60 runs, admitted that even he wasn’t sure how the equation would be cracked in the final moments.

However, having Miller at the crease provided a sense of assurance. Player of the Match Tristan Stubbs was full of praise for his compatriot, highlighting Miller’s calmness and experience in high-pressure situations. “Yeah, I kept thinking three sixes and we're straight back in it.

And they bowled their guns out quite early. So then I always thought, worst case, the last over we can get whatever we need. But I didn't want to take it to the last over.

But thankfully we got over the line. I said to him (Miller), I knew we were going to do it. I didn’t know how.
