David Miller (cricketer)

“At a younger age, I really did work hard at power-hitting, did a lot [of work] with Graham Ford [at Dolphins]. Lance Klusener came in and worked with a lot of us youngsters at that stage. It was really nice to have such an experienced player - someone that's done it at the highest level - to come and give us his knowledge”

“It's just about getting your timing right: the impact of the ball, hands, body, head, all those kinds of things moving in one direction.”

“For me, it's about rhythm, so if I haven't played cricket or if I'm struggling a bit, I find my rhythm's a little bit out, my tempo's out, so it's not necessarily the bat speed.”

“Through the years, your career goes through ebbs and flows and you constantly keep learning, adapting and trying to get better.”

“I had already played for South Africa but wasn't really in the picture. It brought a lot attention to me at that stage.”

“That's when I scored that hundred against RCB [in 2013]. That was probably the turning point in my career.”

“hose kinds of things have come into my game now where I take my body a little bit more seriously, finding ways to stay fit and flexible and making sure the body's good to stay on the park.”

“As the tides turn, you understand your game a lot better, but now you've gotta actually work at your body (laughs). T”

“Sleep's not that important. At the younger ages, you are kind of working out your game and not really worrying about your body.”

“I suppose, as a cliché, it's just another game, but it's a really cool achievement.”

“It's a really proud moment. When I look at all those years back when I first started, I never imagined to be playing this amount of games, so it's a special milestone.”
