Batsman Dewald Brevis has been included in MI Cape Town’s squad for the 2025 SA20.
Brevis was capped twice at T20I level by South Africa prior to the 2024 SA20, but has not played international cricket since.
“He’s my hot favourite. I do tip this guy to win this award. I have been saying good things about his cricket for a very long time now and I do believe they SA20 season three is his season to perform,” said former Proteas captain and SA20 ambassador AB de Villiers.
MI Cape Town ended the 2023 and 2024 SA20 in last position. Their captain is Afghanistan all-rounder Rashid Khan. Their coach is former Proteas spinner Robin Peterson.
The Sunrisers Eastern Cape are the reigning SA20 champions. They are the most successful team in the brief history of the tournament with two titles.
The 2025 SA20 coincides with Bangladesh Premier League, Big Bash League in Australia and International League T20 in the United Arab Emirates.
“We see ourselves as very different to the ILT20. We’re a South African league, with a majority of South African players and our ultimate goal is to benefit South African players,” said SA20 league commissioner Graeme Smith.
