'I will be supporting New Zealand in the final,' says Miller

South African star batter David Miller has revealed his favourite team for the Champions Trophy final, set to take place in Dubai on Sunday, March 9, between India and New Zealand.

In the second semi-final of the tournament, held at Lahore's Gaddafi Stadium, New Zealand defeated South Africa by 50 runs to secure a spot in the final. The Proteas fell short while chasing a massive target of 363 runs, managing 312/9 despite Miller's heroics.

David Miller played a sensational unbeaten century off just 67 balls, but his effort was not enough to secure victory for South Africa. After the match, Miller and New Zealand captain Kane Williamson exchanged smiles and shared a warm hug, showcasing great sportsmanship.

Speaking to the media after the game, Miller expressed his support for New Zealand in the final.

"I will be supporting New Zealand. Both teams are strong—India has been playing great cricket for years, and the final is going to be fantastic," he said.
