All of 19 years old and Dewald Brevis is setting incredible records. The South Africa batter smashed 162 runs off just 57 balls in a T20 match between Titans and Knights in Potchefstroom that very quickly gained global acclaim.

Brevis, who is called 'Baby AB' by fans because of his uncanny resemblance to AB de Villiers, earned some praise from the man himself.

Brevis got to his hundred - his first in T20s - off just 35 balls, only five short of the world record held by Chris Gayle. He hit 13 sixes and as many fours at a strike-rate of 284.21, taking Titans to the fourth-highest total in T20 history - 271 for 3.

Brevis also brought up the fastest 150 in T20 history, getting to the feat in just 51 balls.
