Brevis' Blazing 125* Blows Away Australia As South Africa Level Series

Dewald Brevis broke multiple records as well as the back of Australian bowling line-up in a magnificent display of power-hitting as his 125 not out off 56 balls helped South Africa win the second T20I by 53 runs. Brevis became the youngest South African to scored a T20I century and also raised the highest score by a Proteas batter in the format. His knock helped South Africa set up a 219-run target for Australia who were bundled out for 165 with Kwena Maphaka and Corbin Bosch taking three wickets each.
