The Super Kings signed Dewald Brevis as an injury replacement for Gurjapneet Singh during IPL 2025. Brevis had gone unsold in the auction despite a base price of ₹75 lakh. The 22-year-old was signed mid-season for ₹2.2 crore and scored 225 runs in six matches at an average of 37.5 with a strike rate of 180.
"The Chennai Super Kings' season was going absolutely ordinary. The batters weren't scoring runs, and people were getting injured. They needed mid-season replacements to either resurrect the season or prepare for the next season. In such a scenario, Dewald Brevis came and shone," Chopra said.
Ashwin Says Dewald Brevis Asked for More Money - Aakash Chopra
In the same video, Aakash Chopra said that a replacement player’s salary should be between the base price and the original player’s salary. Chopra stated that if CSK agreed, it could be that the rules were breached.
"Ashwin is saying that players ask for more money, and according to him, the Chennai Super Kings agreed as well. Since Ashwin has said it, I believe Brevis would have asked for more money. In case you have given more than ₹2.20 crore, as it's a plan for next year, if there was a loophole, you have exploited it," he added.
Brevis Smashed Maiden International Century in Second T20I Against Australia
Ravichandran Ashwin revealed that several IPL franchises were interested in Dewald Brevis during IPL 2025, but the deals didn’t materialize as they weren’t willing to pay extra. Chennai Super Kings eventually secured him for a negotiated sum, but it’s unclear if it exceeded ₹2.20 crore.
Brevis finished unbeaten on 125 off 56 balls, helping South Africa post 218/7. The Proteas won the match by 53 runs, leveling the series 1-1, and Brevis will next play in the third and final T20I in Cairns on Saturday, August 16.
