Origin
and identity

Keith Miller brought pace, attacking batting and an irrepressible freedom to post-war cricket.

After serving as a Royal Australian Air Force pilot, Miller became the most magnetic all-rounder of Australia's powerful post-war side. He could bowl genuinely fast and counterattack with the bat.

His unpredictability was part of the force: a player capable of changing a Test in a session, and a central figure in Bradman's unbeaten 1948 tourists.
