Dewald Brevis missed the previous three-match ODI series for the South Africa side against Pakistan due to a shoulder injury. But he returned to the eleven during the opening ODI against India at the JSCA Cricket Complex in Ranchi and showed his impact from the very first ball of the tiny knock in the 350-run chase.
Brevis started his windy knock with a massive six straight down the ground against Ravindra Jadeja. It was a tossed-up delivery from the left-arm spinner as the right-handed batter used his power to crack it straight down the ground. On the fourth delivery of the same over, he went forward and lofted Jadeja for another massive over boundary.

Harshit Rana came into the attack as Brevis played the cut shot to see the ball fly wide of the backward point region to the fence. On the fourth ball of the same over, he managed his special no-look six. It was a length delivery, and the batter flicked it with swag over the deep mid-wicket region for a massive over boundary.

Despite Brevis’ big shots, Rana had the last laugh as the SA batter couldn’t smash another big shot with the batter turning on his hands. He didn’t get the right elevation on the delivery and sliced it into the hands of the sweeper in the cover region. He got a send-off by the KKR bowler after scoring 37 runs in 28 balls at a strike rate of just over 100.
Earlier in the game, Virat Kohli’s special 52nd century of the game, a knock of 135 runs in 120 balls, before KL Rahul smashed 60 runs in 56 balls, along with Ravindra Jadeja’s 32 runs in 20 balls, fired the Blue Brigade to 349/8 in their allotted 50 overs of the first inning.
In reply, SA lost three wickets early in the chase for 11 runs in the fifth over before recovering to 190/5 in 28 overs, thanks to major contributions through the partnerships.
