South African cricketer Dewald Brevis has set a new record in T20 International cricket by surpassing Indian star Virat Kohli's record for the most sixes in T20Is against Australia. Brevis achieved this feat during the third T20I of the series at Cazalys Stadium in Cairns.
In the match, Brevis scored a rapid 53 runs off just 26 balls, including six sixes. This performance brought his total to 14 sixes against Australia in Australia, surpassing Kohli's tally of 12 sixes in 10 innings. Brevis accomplished this in only three innings, highlighting his explosive batting prowess.
Despite Brevis's remarkable individual performance, South Africa fell short in the series decider, with Australia winning by two wickets to claim the series 2-1. Glenn Maxwell's unbeaten 62 runs off 36 balls played a pivotal role in Australia's victory.
Brevis's achievement adds to his growing reputation as one of the most promising young talents in international cricket.
