Hampshire have signed South African batsman Dewald Brevis for the 2025 T20 Blast in the United Kingdom.
Brevis has been capped twice at T20I level by the Proteas – and has played for the Mumbai Indians in the Indian Premier League.
He has also played in the Caribbean Premier League in the West Indies – and Major League Cricket in the United States of America.
Brevis will be team-mates with fellow South African Lhuan-dre Pretorius at Hampshire.
“I’m hugely excited about joining Hampshire Hawks for the Blast. The team has a great history in the competition, and I look forward to being a part of that,” said Brevis.
“It’s great we have Lhuan-dre with us as well and hopefully we can put on a good show and entertain the crowd at Utilita Bowl on our way to reaching finals day and lifting the trophy.
“I’m also looking forward to playing in the County Championship, the team were so close last year, and I hope I can help the club push for the title in 2025.”
Hampshire’s director of cricket Giles White added: “Dewald is an exceptional young player who will add firepower to our batting line-up this summer. He will arrive having enjoyed good recent form, and alongside Lhuan-dre we will have two young cricketers that are hungry to make their mark.”
