South Africa’s U-19 star Dewald Brevis, who is fondly called Baby AB, has been receiving praises from all corners in the ongoing 2022 edition of the Indian Premier League, all thanks to his dynamic cricketing skills. Be it his batting or his fielding abilities, Baby AB has impressed everyone with his performances for the Mumbai Indians in the ongoing season.
On Wednesday, the young talent once again stole all the attention as his fielding and batting prowess were once again on display during an IPL game against Punjab Kings at the MCA Stadium in Pune.
During the Punjab Kings’ innings, Dewald Brevis made everyone jump out of their seat with his remarkable fielding efforts. The incident took place during the first delivery of the 9th over when Shikhar Dhawan smashed a flighted delivery from Murugan Ashwin over the square leg.
Baby AB, who was fielding near the deep backward square leg boundary, ran towards his left and dived full length to grab the ball. However, all the efforts went in vain as the ball slipped out of his hands and lobbed over the boundary line for a six.
