In a rare but heartwarming moment during IPL 2025, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) skipper MS Dhoni was seen applauding from the dugout after Dewald Brevis launched a sensational six in the final over of CSK’s innings against Gujarat Titans (GT). The young South African star showcased his power-hitting prowess with a blistering pull shot off pacer Prasidh Krishna, sending the ball soaring into the stands and the CSK dugout into raptures.
The six came in the last over of the innings, as Brevis took full advantage of a short-pitched delivery. Displaying supreme timing and authority, he rocked back and pulled Krishna over deep midwicket, drawing a rare visible reaction from the usually stoic Dhoni, who acknowledged the shot with an appreciative clap and a nod of approval.
Brevis, often referred to as "Baby AB" for his style reminiscent of AB de Villiers, finished with a quickfire 57 off just 23 deliveries, including 4 boundaries and 5 massive sixes, anchoring CSK's late-innings onslaught. His aggressive knock propelled CSK to a commanding total of 230/5, putting immense pressure on GT heading into the chase.
