In the video shared by the RR on its official Twitter handle on Sunday, Miller, who is known for his attacking flair, was seen faring very well with his strokeplay and even he almost killed his fellow teammate Rajpoot with a powerful straight shot over the pacer’s head during their training session.
Trying to hit straight down the line, Miller hit a powerful shot off Rajput’s delivery which went straight towards the fast-bowler, who instinctively ducked and avoided a deadly blow to his head.
Meanwhile, the camera on Miller's helmet captured the entire incident, showing how miraculously Rajput escaped from the deadly blow before the start of the IPL 13. Later, the 31-year-old Proteas batsman apologized to Rajpoot while praising the bowler for ducking right on the time.
