NEW DELHI: Gujarat Titans‘ designated finisher David Miller, who has been absent from their last two games resulting in defeats, is likely to continue missing in action for their upcoming match against Rajasthan Royals, according to the team’s left-arm Australian pacer Spencer Johnson, speaking on Tuesday.
The 2022 champions and last year’s runners-up, GT, suffered losses against Punjab Kings by three wickets and Lucknow Super Giants by 33 runs in their last two matches, highlighting the absence of Miller’s firepower in the latter part of the innings.
While initially believed to be a niggle, it has been learned that Miller is expected to miss at least two weeks of action.
“Davy, I think he is not too far away (from return). Even if he misses this one, he will be available for the next one,” Johnson said at the pre-match media conference.
Johnson expressed his belief that instead of having a 2-3 win-loss record for GT, the team could have easily been in a 4-1 position in their favour if they hadn’t lost a couple of close games.
“Couple of disappointing performances in last couple of games but in last couple of years, we have shown how good a side we are,” said the lanky paceman, who was bought for USD 1.18 million at last year’s auctions.
A win against Rajasthan Royals, who are on a roll with four wins from four games, will be an uphill task, conceded Johnson but also didn’t forget to mention that a win will give them confidence ahead of their next couple of home games.
“When you come to Rajasthan Royals’ home, it is not easy as Royals have won four on 4, we are looking to knock them off, how hard it is to win away games, but a couple of points here, goes a long way giving confidence going into our next two home games,” Johnson said.
