Miller, who played two seasons for Rajasthan
Actually, Miller started playing for the Punjab team in the IPL. After this, Miller was bought by the Rajasthan team in the 2020 and 2021 seasons. The Rajasthan franchise did not retain Miller for the 2022 season. In such a situation, in the mega auction, the new team Gujarat Titans bought Miller for Rs 3 crore.
