The magnificent effort from the 19-year-old Brevis was witnessed during the 7th over of Knights’ inning when Harmer smashed a big hit trying to clear the boundary ropes. But the brilliant fielding effort from the South African teenager sent him back to pavilion. Bravis first stopped the ball from going out for a six, and later dived inside the rope to complete the catch.
