Moreover, the middle-order batter is confident of winning the upcoming games as well as the ongoing tournament.

“Was a great result, very happy with that. To have got the bonus point at the end was good. Bowlers bowled exceptionally well, Jos Buttler and Wihan batted sensationally in that partnership. [on Ngidi] He is key to our success, he has taken the leadership in the bowling department and he is very clear in what he wants to do. While, big boundary here, the dimensions here are different, a lot of wind and a bit of factors to think about. [on Jos Buttler] Jos Buttler is a world-class player and to do what he did there was very special,” David Miller said after the win.
