India, Aug. 12 -- Dewald Brevis lit up the Marrara Oval in Darwin on Tuesday night as he tore down a host of records for South Africa during their 53-run victory over Australia. The 22-year-old scored 125* off just 56 deliveries, in an innings that helped propel the Proteas to 218/7 in the first innings before a clinical bowling performance ensured that the hosts were bowled out for 165 to claim an easy win.

Brevis' innings saw him take down record after record. This included the highest-ever score in a T20I match by a South African player, surpassing Faf du Plessis' 119, and establishing himself at the top of his list.
