In the ongoing T20I cricket series between Australia and South Africa, Australia took a 1-0 lead after a challenging start in the first match, where Tim David played a crucial innings and the Australian bowlers performed well. Australia hit 13 sixes compared to South Africa's two despite being 75 for 6. The second T20I saw South Africa bat first with the return of Rassie van der Dussen. Dewald Brevis emerged as the standout performer, scoring his maiden T20I fifty and then rapidly converting it into a century off just 41 balls, including a 16-ball fifty-to-hundred phase. Brevis set multiple records: he became the youngest South African to score a T20I century, recorded the highest individual T20I score for South Africa, the highest against Australia, and the highest in Australia. His innings helped South Africa post a commanding total of 218, their highest ever against Australia in men's T20Is. Tim David scored a fifty in the chase, but South Africa's strong batting performance led them to win the second match, leveling the three-match series 1-1 and ending Australia's winning streak in T20Is. The series will be decided in the final match.
