SA U19 and Titans all-rounder Dewald Brevis has signed with the IPL powerhouse the Mumbai Indians.
The 18-year-old rising talent, also known as “Baby AB”, has been talked about for some time now – ever since he got down on one knee with that signature slog-sweep at Cubs Week – Brevis’ name has been the talk of the town in most parts of South Africa.
Brevis has ended this World Cup campaign with 138 off 130 balls (11 fours, 7 sixes), which took his runs tally in the tournament to 506.
What this means, is that he is now officially the highest ever individual run-getter in a single U19 World Cup tournament, surpassing Shikhar Dhawan by a single run.
It would have been an understandable move if RCB signed Brevis because of the AB connection, but instead, he was picked up by Mumbai Indians, the 5-time winners.
His name is amongst a few other South Africans picked up at the mega auction.
