Miles played for Wiltshire County Cricket Club in the Minor Counties Championship between 2007 and 2014 and made first-class cricket appearances for Cardiff MCC University between 2012 and 2013 whilst a student. He played two matches in New Zealand for Otago during the 2015–16 season and has since settled the country.[3][4]

Born at Swindon in Wiltshire in 1989, Miles was educated at Bradon Forest School in Purton and at Filton College before studying psychology at university in Cardiff.[3][4] A wicket-keeper, he played for Wiltshire age-group sides before making his Minor Counties Championship debut for the county side in 2007.

From 2013 to 2021 he worked for the Otago Cricket Association in a variety of roles, including as a coach and as the association's talent development manager. He has also worked as a coach for the New Zealand under-19 team and worked for the New Zealand Netball Players Association.[4][5]
