Dewald Brevis\u00a0<\/strong>: <\/a>South African batter\u00a0Dewald Brevis\u00a0has recalled how he would tell his mother as a kid that he was never going to study and instead, focus on cricket after school finished. The rising Chennai Super Kings (CSK) star admitted that he loved the sport and was passionate about playing it. He added that he played many others sports as well, but cricket was always the priority.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dewald Brevis\u00a0<\/strong>: Brevis made his international debut against Australia in August 2023 and has played 14 matches, across formats, for his country. The right-hander told\u00a0Supersport:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cI always told my mama, I am never going to study. I\u2019m going to play cricket as I get out of school. If you go through school and everywhere, cricket was always my love, my passion. I played lots of sports, but as a youngster, you know what you love and what you like to do, cricket was always up there.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Dewald Brevis\u00a0<\/strong>: Brevis recalled the time when he was picked by\u00a0Mumbai Indians\u00a0at the IPL auction. The right-hander said that he was seated with wicketkeeper-batter\u00a0Quinton de Kock\u00a0while his bid was going on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cWe played against the Knights. I did quite all right with the bat, got off to a flyer of a start. Then, I went out, and as I was sitting in the dugout, that\u2019s why probably I didn\u2019t bat for that long because I was sitting on a chair, and on the big screen, the auction appeared, and I was basically getting bid on,” he said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cI saw it, but I didn\u2019t want to show the team I was looking at it. So I was just looking at our game, and then Quinny (Quinton de Kock) was sitting at the back. He said, \u2018No, no, forget about our game. Come sit next to me. Do you know what just happened now?. Life just changed.\u2019 I\u2019ll always be grateful for that moment. Yeah, it was a part of my journey and special days,” he added.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Dewald Brevis,<\/a> who considers AB de Villiers as his hero, recalled the first time he met the legendary South African batter. The 22-year-old said that he was star-struck, but managed to request him for his number which he obliged. He added that he had remained in touch with the 41-year-old since the lockdown days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cI will always remember that day, but basically, I have met him once and asked him for a picture. That was a few days, actually, before I met him properly. So we were in Hazlewood Culture Club<\/a>, a restaurant, with my brother and family. AB and his wife just walked past us, and somehow I just stood there star-struck. I wanted to ask for a picture, but I didn\u2019t like it, and I couldn\u2019t get it out. Then his wife told, \u2018AB, come AB, come for a picture’,” he said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\n

“A few days later, a student in grade eight comes running around, and he told us, \u2018Listen, AB is here at the school.\u2019 We rush there, and there\u2019s a queue and stuff, but we go through the queue and into the office. There\u2019s AB. Me, star-struck, skull star-struck. Basically, could not get any questions out. He was ready to leave, and I asked, \u2018Now we are going to walk with you,\u2019 and as we were walking, something inside, a few words came out, and I said, \u2018AB, you can say no, but can I please have your number?\u2019,” he continued.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

\n

“Then, he gave me his number, and I sent him a message a bit later, just to say thank you and anything, but I can\u2019t remember the rest. Since that day, the lockdown came, and we stayed in touch, and that\u2019s basically how his mentoring and our relationship started,” he said.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

AB de Villiers<\/a>, recently, complimented IPL team Chennai Super Kings for buying the right-hander after\u00a0he made a 41-ball hundred against Australia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
