IPL 2025 [WATCH]: Dewald Brevis hits an unbelievable no-look six against Kwena Maphaka during CSK vs RR clash

In the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 clash between Rajasthan Royals and Chennai Super Kings, Dewald Brevis lit up the evening with an audacious piece of batting brilliance. Facing his fellow South African teammate Kwena Maphaka, Brevis launched a jaw-dropping no-look six that sent the crowd into a frenzy. While the match saw plenty of twists and turns, it was this single moment from Brevis that stole the spotlight and left viewers in awe of his unorthodox flair.

The no-look six: A moment of sheer genius from Brevis

The delivery from Maphaka, on the last ball of 9th over, was a full-length ball targeting leg stump, typically a zone where batters look to work the ball into the on-side. But Brevis had something far more audacious in mind. He planted his front foot forward, twisted slightly at the hips, and with almost no follow-through in his gaze, unleashed a perfectly timed flick over deep midwicket for a massive six. What made the shot even more surreal was that Brevis didn’t bother watching the ball leave his bat, he had already turned his head away, trusting his timing, positioning, and bat swing. The bat met the ball at the sweet spot, creating an effortless elevation that cleared the boundary by several meters. To attempt such a shot against a pacer reflects a high level of mental clarity and a fearless batting approach.

High-octane show in Delhi as CSK post competitive total against RR

The 62nd match of IPL 2025 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi has lived up to the hype so far, with CSK delivering a strong batting performance to post 187/8 in 20 overs. After being sent in by Rajasthan Royals, CSK had a shaky start, losing Devon Conway and Urvil Patel within the first two overs. But it was the explosive 43 off 20 balls from Ayush Mhatre, including eight crisp boundaries and a six, that reignited the innings. Brevis then added a dazzling 42 from 25, including an unforgettable no-look six off Maphaka that sent shockwaves across the stadium. Shivam Dube and MS Dhoni kept the momentum going with a handy 43-run stand for the eight wicket, guiding CSK past 180 despite frequent breakthroughs by RR’s bowlers, especially Yudhvir Singh, who picked up three wickets. The match has seen a perfect balance of aggression and tactical bowling, with both teams trading punches in quick succession.
