South Africa’s Dewald Brevis set a new national record in T20I cricket by scoring an unbeaten 125 off just 56 balls against Australia in the second T20I. The 22-year-old struck 12 fours and 8 sixes, becoming the youngest South African to score a T20I century and recording the second-fastest century for the country after David Miller’s 35-ball feat. His innings powered South Africa to a 53-run victory, earning him the Player of the Match award and surpassing Faf du Plessis’ previous national best of 119 runs in 2015.
