- Published
Chennai Super Kings have signed South Africa batter Dewald Brevis to replace injured seamer Gurjapneet Singh.
Brevis, a highly-rated 21-year-old right-hander, has played two T20s for South Africa and has previously played for the Mumbai Indians franchise in various T20 leagues.
He has played 10 matches in the Indian Premier League, helped MI Cape Town to the SA20 title this year and has played for MI New York in Major League Cricket.
Gurjapneet has not played this season for CSK, who are bottom of the table with two wins from seven matches after a difficult start to the campaign.
Their top order has struggled throughout the tournament, with Brevis providing a further option.
