Dewald Bravis, the upcoming T20 superstar for South Africa, had already grabbed so much fame during the recent 2025 season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) for the Chennai Super Kings. The right-handed batter smashed 225 runs at a strike rate of 180 in six innings at an average of 37.50. But during the second T20I against Australia in Darwin.
Brevis walked into the middle during the fifth over and smashed Ben Dwarshuis for a four before smoking Glenn Maxwell over long-on for a huge six. But the viral video was around the no-look six against Sean Abbott on the opening delivery of the ninth over, followed by another four through the backward point region. He swung his willow against Adam Zampa for another six over long-on. Australia looked to have no answer.

It was the 12th over when the batter opened up against Maxwell. He clubbed the second ball for a six over long-on before repeating the same short over deep mid-wicket for another over boundary. The fourth delivery of the over was dropped before he dashed another six straight down the ground.

Brevis celebrated his half-century in just 25 balls as he also became the third youngest Protea batter to record a T20I fifty at an age of 22 years after Tristan Stubbs did it at 21 and Lhuan-de-Pretorius achieved the feat at 19. It was also the fastest T20I century for the Rainbow Nation against Australia.
When Marsh brought back the pacers, they went short at the batter, who clubbed it over the wicket-keeper’s head for a six. Australia seemed to be clueless against Brevis, who didn’t look to end the knock. He drilled Dwarshuis for two successive boundaries and ended with an unbeaten 125 runs in 56 balls, scoring 12 boundaries and eight sixes at a strike rate of 223.21.
That is now the highest individual T20I score for the Proteas, overtaking 119 by Faf du Plessis against West Indies in 2015. It’s also the highest individual T20I score against Australia, surpassing 123 by Ruturaj Gaikwad in 2023. This is also the highest individual score in the T20Is in Australia as he went past Shan Watson’s 124* against India in Sydney in 2016.
