Dewald Brevis is a young South African cricketer popularly known as 'Baby AB'. He's a right-handed batter and an occasional right-arm leg-spinner.

In November 2021, the Protea was named in South Africa's team for the 2022 season of the ICC U-19 Cricket World Cup in the West Indies. He scored two centuries and three fifties during the tournament and was adjudged the 'Player of the Tournament'.

At just 22 years and 105 days old, Brevis also became the youngest South African cricketer to score a century in T20Is.
