IPL 2025: ‘He for a long time for Chennai …’, big prediction about this young player of Kumble
New Delhi:
Former Indian coach Anil Kumble (Anil kumble) It is believed that South African young players Dewald Bravis can prove to be an important player for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the future. CSK lost by five wickets against Sunrisers Hyderabad in Chennai. This was CSK’s fourth consecutive defeat in the house. However, in his first match, Brevis scored 42 runs in 25 balls, including four sixes and a four. With his contribution, the team was able to reach the honorable score of 154, while the rest of the batting failed once again. Bravis has been included in the team in place of injured bowler Gurjapneet Singh.

Kumble said on Geographstar, ‘Brevis’s ability to play against spin bowling was fantastic. Chennai’s pitch is not easy-the ball here sometimes stops, but Brevis has played well in South Africa, first class cricket and under-19 matches. And from there he has come in the IPL. He did not find a place in the original team, but got a chance due to injury. Brevis has all kinds of shots. CSK can form a new youth team with such young players. Brevis can become beneficial players for the team for a long time. Kumble also expressed his opinion on the team combination of Chennai Super Kings.
He said, ‘According to me, the pair of Gaikwad and Devon Conway should have opened together. Even though Conway is not in form right now. The same pair made CSK champion a few years ago. Rachin Ravindra has talent, but in this format he seems to be in a hurry. Perhaps at number three, he would get a chance to play better.
He further said, ‘Except Shivam Dubey, there was a lack of strength in the middle order. Now youths like Brevis and Mhatre are getting a chance to play, which are good signs. But now CSK should start thinking ahead of Pathirana. Not feeding an experienced bowler like Nathan Ellis after a single match is out of comprehension. Now that there are only five matches left, this is the right time to give the youth a chance and prepare the future team. Sunrisers Hyderabad bowler Harshal Patel took four wickets for 28 runs in four overs and was elected ‘Player of the Match’. Kumble praised Harshal and said, ‘Harshal has a lot of experience in this format. Especially to bowl in difficult overs. They have won the Purple Cap before and they know what to do. It is necessary to bowl in the right length on the grounds like Chennai and Chinnaswamy.
