A 13-year-old social media post by Jofra Archer went viral following a nail-biting IPL 2026 match where David Miller scored an impressive 41 runs for Delhi Capitals, narrowly missing victory against Gujarat Titans. Miller's late-game performance included two sixes and a boundary, making the match intensely competitive.
NEW DELHI: An old post by Jofra Archer has unexpectedly gone viral after a thrilling IPL 2026 clash, where David Miller played a powerful cameo for Delhi Capitals but fell just short of sealing victory against Gujarat Titans.
His unbeaten 41 off 20 balls, packed with big hits, nearly turned the game around in a tense late-night finish.
The game built up to a dramatic final over, with Miller leading the chase after briefly leaving the field due to a finger issue.
Despite the setback, he returned strongly, smashing two sixes and a boundary in a crucial over to bring Delhi back into contention. With only a few runs needed in the last moments, the match looked within reach.
Things took a surprising turn when Miller declined a single on the second-last delivery, possibly showing a lack of confidence in his partner. That decision proved costly.
On the final ball, bowled by Prasidh Krishna, Miller failed to make contact, and Jos Buttler quickly completed a run-out to hand Gujarat Titans a narrow win in a nail-biting finish.
Soon after, Archerâs 2013 tweet resurfaced: âMiller mad? Cricket at 11:30,â perfectly matching the late-night drama of this match, which ended around the same time.
The tweet was originally posted during a close South Africa vs Pakistan game, making the coincidence even more striking.
Millerâs fearless approach almost delivered victory, but one bold call changed everything, turning a near-win into a heartbreaking loss.
Earlier in the evening, Gujarat Titans put up a strong total led by Shubman Gillâs 70, supported by Jos Buttler's 52 and Washington Sundarâs 55.
