Known as ‘Baby AB’ due to his uncanny resemblance with the South African legendary cricketer AB de Villiers’s style of batting, Dewald Brevis has trudged a path of ascendency since his remarkable batting performance during the ICC U-19 Cricket World Cup in West Indies this year.
Impressed by his potential, he was also roped in by the five-time IPL franchise Mumbai Indians (MI) during the mega auction that took place a month later, where he played seven matches for the franchise, and turned up with a few eye-catching innings, like the one versus Punjab Kings (PBKS) in Pune, which made him a household name.
Even during this year’s Caribbean Premier League (CPL), he turned the Cricket fans’ attention towards him, when he smashed 5 Sixes off the six deliveries he faced while playing for the St Kitts and Nevis Patriots at Guyana.
On the social media platform Twitter, the 19-year-old was yet again the point of discussion, when an argument of sorts broke out between the legendary South African batter Herschelle Gibbs and South Africa’s Performance Analyst from 2010-2021, regarding whether or not he deserves a place in the Proteas national side at the earliest.
