Even AB de Villiers, the legendary South African cricket, heaped praise on Brevis for playing the masterful knock in favourable batting conditions.
Brevis is also nicknamed 'Baby AB' for his fondness towards De Villiers, whom he hailed after his knock.
"I always watch the videos of AB Devilliers, his bat swing and I remember that while going to bat," said Dewald Brevis.
