With 16 needed off the final over, Miller smashed each of Prasidh Krishna's first three balls for six to bring the house down at a full capacity Eden Gardens. (BCCI/IPL/PTI Photo)

Miller's unbeaten 68 came from 38 balls and included three fours and five sixes. (BCCI/IPL Photo)

Earlier, Rajasthan started cautiously before Sanju Samson made 47 off 26 balls, adding 68 with Jos Buttler. (BCCI/IPL/PTI Photo)

Samson hit five fours and three sixes before falling to Sai Kishore in his attempt to get another hit over the fence only to get caught at long-off. (BCCI/IPL/PTI Photo)

Rashid Khan kept a lid on the opposition scoring with his leg-spin as he choked the opposition of runs during his four overs. (BCCI/IPL Photo)

Buttler never quite hit his best form as he hit 12 fours and two sixes in his 56-ball 89. (BCCI/IPL/PTI Photo)

Gujarat lost Wriddhiman Saha for nought off Trent Boult on the second ball of the chase before Shubman Gill (35) and Matthew Wade (35) took the attack to the opposition as Gujarat reached 64-1 in six overs. (BCCI/IPL/PTI Photo)

Gill and Wade put on 71 before departing but Pandya stood firm and found able company in Miller as the two put the chase back on track. (BCCI/IPL/PTI Photo)
