By SRTeam You must have seen Dewald Brevis in the Mumbai Indians’ squad when he made his entry in IPL back in 2022, but now, in the IPL 2025, he’s actually part of the Chennai Super Kings squad. Though in India’s cricket scene, not a lot of people know about him, but he certainly is getting popular, especially by the name “Baby AB.” Well, come to that later, for now, let’s take a good look at his life story a bit up close.

Personal Life
So, for those who don’t know yet, Dewald Tobias Brevis is just a 21-year-old because he was born on 29 April 2003 in Johannesburg, South Africa. We all know that he’s becoming famous as the Baby version of AB Delivers, but there is one more similarity to these two, you see, Brevis even went to the same school that produced AB de Villiers.
As for his personal life, well, he is not married yet, though he’s in a long-term relationship with Lindy Maree. And as for his net worth in 2025, well, we have just the estimated numbers, and those say it is somewhere around $2 to $3 million.
Professional Life and IPL Career
Well, it is true that the thing which got Dewald Brevis famous is his big hitting ability. We first saw him score big in the 2022 ICC U‑19 World Cup, you know, where he scored about 506 runs in just six innings, and yes, he was named the Player of the Tournament, too. Then we saw him do even better in CPL and SA20, which is where a lot of people compared him to AB de Villiers.
All of these performances were the very reason why he made his debut for the South African International T20 cricket team back on 30 August 2023 against Australia. But he couldn’t perform well in those first few matches.
Talking about his IPL story, well, first he was part of the Mumbai Indians team back in 2022 when they bought him for ₹3 crore. For that particular reason, he really showed every IPL fan what he is capable of by hitting 29 runs in just one over of Rahul Chahar. After that, his IPL career went kinda decent, and now, in IPL 2025, he’s part of the Chennai Super Kings team, and by April 2025 his IPL record stands at 230 runs from ten matches, strike‑rate 134.
