The middle-order heavyweight unfurled sensational match-winning knocks against South Africa’s bogey team Netherlands and defending champions England; and nearly took his nation to the ultimate glory in the title clash against eventual winners India.

Interestingly, a couple of days after the conclusion of the tournament, news circulated around social media regarding the cricketer’s potential retirement from T20Is. 

Here at OneCricket, we probe into the truth behind the aforementioned rumors.

Is David Miller really retiring from T20Is?

On July 1, several social media users speculated that South African batting legend David Miller has announced his retirement from T20I cricket.
