The youngster has displayed fluent stroke-making in the tournament and has scored 161 runs. MI bought him in the mega auction for Rs 3 Crore. 

Brevis also played a decent knock for the team scoring 37 runs against Delhi Capitals. Reflecting on his performance so far in the competition, Brevis said that having AB de Villiers as his mentor has benefitted him. 

"Yes look, you're always growing up idolising him, really watch him on TV or next to the field. Ya, I have met him before a few times, met him at my school, he also attended the same school. So, just to get to know him, he is such a great human being and to learn from him, he gives more pieces of advice and he is really one of the best. Having him as a mentor is special to me," Brevis said, reported India Today.
