Hampshire have signed South African young cricketer Dewald Brevis on a season-long deal. The player will be available for both the T20 Blast campaign and the County Championship.
The South African young batter previously caught attention with his performance in the 2022 Under-19 World Cup.
He scored a total of 506 runs, including two centuries and three fifties, in six innings. Hampshire had previously signed another South African, Lhuan-dre Pretorius. The two will now play together.
Dewald Brevis, who will join his new team, made the following statement:
“The team has a great history in this competition, and I look forward to being a part of it.”
“It’s great to have Lhuan-dre with us as well, and hopefully, we can put on a good show and reach Finals Day, lifting the trophy.”
“I’m also excited to play in the County Championship. The team was so close last year, and I hope I can help the club push for the title in 2025.”
