Dewald Brewis produced a sensational effort to dismiss Ruturaj Gaikwad, leaving fans in awe. The moment became even bigger as Virat Kohli’s animated reaction instantly went viral, taking social media by storm during the high-intensity clash.
This crucial moment came during the 27th over of India’s innings. Ruturaj Gaikwad, aiming to increase the pace after a cautious start, lofted a sharp ball from Nandre Berger towards the cover region. What appeared to be a sure boundary was dramatically blocked by Brevis at short extra cover. The ball moved rapidly towards him, but the 22-year-old player jumped with full force to his right and snatched the ball with his right hand.
What a catch by Dewald Brewis!

The amazing athleticism and stickiness of the catch surprised Gaikwad as he returned to the pavilion on the score of 8.
Still, the real highlight was the reaction from the other end. Virat Kohli, who was batting brilliantly and was close to a century, was left speechless for a few moments with his mouth open. He nodded his head and offered a wry, admiring smile, and briefly raised his bat in respect for the extraordinary fielding performance. This spontaneous and heartfelt response from one of cricket’s greatest players soon became a hot topic on social media, perfectly summing up the brilliance of Brewis’ catch.
This catch not only gave South Africa a crucial breakthrough, but also cemented Dewald Brewis’ status as a future star, capable of producing match-winning moments in all aspects of the game.
