VIDEO: six on the first ball and out on the second, the magic of Brevis did not run in ODIs
Dewald Bravis, who rocked the T20 series against Australia, flopped on ODI debut. He continued to score just 6 runs in the first ODI against Australia. The fans and his team had high hopes from the Bravis who came to bat in the 41st over and gave a six to the hopes by hitting a six on the first ball of his innings, but his enthusiasm was overshadowed by him.
Head bowled the fourth ball of the 41st over with a little loop and Brevis went to hit the second consecutive six but the connection of his bat and the ball was not so good that the ball went out of the boundary as a result, Alex Carrie, standing on long on, ended his innings by holding a simple catch and Brewis could not do anything special on his ODI debut. You can watch the video of his wicket below.
Talking about this match, South Africa has given Australia a target of 297 runs to win in the first ODI being played at Caizlies Stadium in Cairns on Tuesday (August 19).
