2nd T20I: Dewald Brevis Historic Century Powers South Africa To 57-Run Win Over Australia, Levels Series 1-1
After not matching the Australian firepower in the first game, South Africa roared back to level the series 1-1 in style, with an emphatic 57-run win at the Marrara Cricket Ground in Darwin on Tuesday. The defeat is Australia's second-highest margin loss in T20Is and also the hosts' first defeat in the format in 10 games. South Africa's total of 218/7 was largely enabled by the power hitting on display by Dewald Brevis (125*) as the young batter smashed his first T20I century, the second fastest and youngest to do so in Proteas history. He also surpassed Faf Du Plessis for the highest score in this format by a South African. Skipper Aiden Markram (18) and Ryan Rickelton (14) looked set on the crease before the latter, while attempting to pull Ben Dwarshuis holed out to Tim David. Markram soon followed as Glenn Maxwell baited the skipper into coming down the pitch and was caught by Mitchell Owen. The Australian allrounder claimed his second of the day thanks to solid keeping behind the stumps by Alex Carey, to send Lhuan-dre Pretorius (10) packing. Brevis and Tristian Stubbs (31) put on a 126-run stand for the fourth wicket, with the former taking on the brunt of scoring runs. He reached his fifty in 25 balls before accelerating to a century in just 41. In the end, it was Adam Zampa who provided the breakthrough in the form of Stubbs. Rassie van der Dussen (5), Corbin Bosch (0), and Kagiso Rabada (5) failed to add significant runs to the scoreboard, but Brevis' 12 boundaries and eight maximums saw the Proteas end at 218/7. Although Australia's heavy hitting has been on full flow recently, their reliability came under question in the first T20I, and doubts will continue to linger after the second T20I. Travis Head (5) and Cameron Green (9) were dismissed by Markram and Kwena Maphaka, respectively. While Tim David (50) continued his hot run of form with another half-century, skipper Mitchell Marsh (22) looked to be in good rhythm before falling to Corbin Bosch. Kagiso Rabada struck with the all-important scalp when David was unable to clear the fielder at cover. Although a mountain of a chase remained, it was not until Maphaka struck twice with the wickets of Glenn Maxwell (16) and Mitchell Owen (8) that the game started to slip away from the hosts. Brevis completed a smart catch while stumbling towards the ground to dismiss Carey (26) off Nqabayomzi Peter. From there on, Proteas did not make much of a fuss in cleaning the lower order with Dwarshuis (12), Sean Abbott (1), and Adam Zampa (0) falling in quick succession.

Brevis smashes record ton as South Africa level T20 series
Australia's decision to bowl backfired as South Africa powered to a massive 218-7 on the back of Brevis' maiden century in international cricket. The 22-year-old rescued South Africa from a shaky 57-3 and dominated a 126-run partnership with Tristan Stubbs (31). "I'm extremely grateful, just happy to be out here on the winning side," said Brevis, who surpassed Faf du Plessis' 119 against the West Indies in 2015. Playing just his ninth T20 international, Brevis smashed eight sixes to leave Australia's powerful batting line-up with an uphill task. Australia's daunting chase was made more difficult after the early wickets of opener Travis Head (five) and Cameron Green (nine). Australia's hopes rested with in-form Tim David, fresh off his match-winning 83 in their 17-run victory in the series-opener at the same venue. Promoted to number four, David started with a trio of boundaries and then bludgeoned several massive sixes, including one that landed on the roof. But David's 24-ball assault ended on 50 when he hit spearhead Kagiso Rabada straight to cover. Australia's chase ran out of steam, bowled out for 165 in the 18th over with quicks Corbin Bosch and Kwena Maphaka picking up three wickets each. "Chasing that down was always going to be tough and we needed a few partnerships, which we couldn't do," Australia captain Mitchell Marsh said. Without several key batsmen for this tour, South Africa had struggled to fire in the opening game. Captain Aiden Markram signalled his intent with a sublime boundary off the first ball of the innings, rattling quick Josh Hazlewood. But Markram (18) fell tamely to a fired-up Glenn Maxwell, who celebrated another wicket when he had Lhuan-dre Pretorius (10) stumped to leave South Africa in trouble. Likened to legendary South Africa batsman AB de Villiers, Brevis turned the innings on its head to power past his previous highest T20 international score of 41. Brevis received a life on 56 when substitute fielder Matthew Kuhnemann fumbled on the boundary off the bowling of an increasingly frustrated Maxwell. Brevis made Australia pay and in a flash he was saluting the crowd after reaching his century with a boundary off his 41st delivery. Maxwell and quick Ben Dwarshuis picked up two wickets apiece in an unusually ragged effort in the field for Australia, whose nine-match T20 win streak ended. The series-decider will be played in the Queensland city of Cairns on Saturday.

AUS vs SA Live Score, 2nd T20I: South Africa eye to level the series vs Australia
14:04 (IST) Aug 12 Maphaka's performance came after a disappointing showing in Zimbabwe, where he managed just three wickets for 92 runs in 10.5 overs during the tri-nation series against Zimbabwe and New Zealand. The young bowler had a notable exchange with Tim David after the Australian batter attempted to complain to the umpire about a delivery aimed at his chest. "He went to the umpire and he was asking about it. I just told him to let the umpires deal with umpiring the game, and he must focus on batting," Maphaka said after the match. Despite Maphaka's impressive bowling, which included dismissing Mitchell Owen early in his spell, David went on to score 83 runs off 52 balls, featuring four boundaries and eight sixes, helping Australia reach 178 runs after being 71/5. "It feels really good, coming off a few bad performances in Zimbabwe and just building up, playing some more professional and competitive cricket in the past few months, it feels really good to put in a good performance for the team and make history while doing it," Maphaka said.
