T20 World Cup: On the eve of the South Africa versus UAE clash in the Men’s T20 World Cup 2026, the Proteas consultant coach Albie Morkel had brushed aside concerns over Dewald Brevis’s form, after he posted scores of 6, 23, and 31. Morkel would call him an X-factor player who would ‘break your heart at times, but he will also win you games’.

He would also say, ‘The best way is to let him be that guy.’ On Wednesday, with no scoreboard pressure around, Brevis freed his arms to entertain a strong crowd of 14,400 fans by making 36 off 25 balls, his highest score in this World Cup.

After South Africa won by six wickets to sign off from Group D as an unbeaten side, Brevis, playing his first T20 World Cup, dismissed suggestions of him being under pressure due to the low scores. “Not at all. Every ball I hit and every moment I've been out there, I feel like my confidence is at a great place and I enjoy being out there.”
