Social media can’t keep calm, and for good reason. Dewald Brevis, the young South African batter often called Baby AB, just dropped a major hint. He posted a picture on Instagram with a yellow background, and that’s all it took to set fans on fire.

Soon after, the comments poured in. “Welcome to CSK!” “Thala’s army just got stronger.” “Baby AB in Yellow? Goosebumps already.” And guess what? It was not just the noise. The speculation turned into confirmation. Yes, you read it right!

As per Cricbuzz, Chennai Super Kings have officially signed Dewald Brevis for the remainder of IPL 2025. The five-time champions brought him in as a replacement for injured pacer Gurjapneet Singh. With one overseas slot still vacant, CSK made a smart move and grabbed one of the most exciting young talents in world cricket.

This is a big win for CSK. Even though Brevis hasn’t had a long international career yet, he has already made heads turn. He hogged the limelight for his fearless batting, wide range of strokes, and ability to clear boundaries. His style of play reminds many fans of AB de Villiers and which why he got the nickname “Baby AB” in the first place.

He has played 10 IPL matches before, all for Mumbai Indians, wherein he scored 230 runs, registering his best score of 49. Even after limited chances, his potential was crystal clear. He continues to play for MI in SA20 and Major League Cricket (MLC), which shows the franchise rated him highly. But now, things have changed, and he will be playing for CSK in the IPL.

CSK already has a strong mix of experience and youth. Bringing in Brevis adds firepower and flexibility to their middle order. It would be an absolute visual treat to the CSK fans, and just imagine him batting at Chepauk in front of the Yellow Army.

Whether he plays many matches this season or not, the move itself is exciting, as CSK went for potential, hunger, and long-term value in the first place. It is an excellent opportunity for Brevis, as he has the chance to learn under the likes of MS Dhoni and Stephen Fleming.

So yes, the 21-year-old Baby AB is in Yellow now. If his Instagram post was the teaser, CSK fans are hoping the blockbuster is just around the corner. CSK fans, get ready because chasing 180-plus might not be that scary anymore. As of now, CSK are at the bottom of the points table with two wins and five defeats. They still have a mountain to climb in the group stage. They will lock horns with Mumbai Indians on April 20, Sunday at the Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai.
