IPL 2022: Promising Teenager 'Baby AB' Aims To Learn From Sachin Tendulkar During His Mumbai Indians' Stint
He is nicknamed 'Baby AB' for the remarkable resemblance in his batting to South Africa legend AB de Villiers, but U19 star Dewald Brevis knows that comparison is a double-edged sword and would rather have his own identity and style of play.
The 18-year-old was recently picked by Mumbai Indians for IPL 2022 via the Mega Auctions after he was catapulted to global fame during the 2022 U19 World Cup, where Brevis scored 506 runs -- the most in a single edition of the tournament surpassing Shikhar Dhawan's 505 in 2004 -- and picked up seven wickets with his part-time leg-spin.
