The 22-year-old says Dhoni’s humility stood out during his brief CSK stint.

  • Brevis recounts dropping by Dhoni’s room to chat about hobbies and watch cricket, calling the time with the CSK legend a special highlight of his tenure.
  • After going unsold at the IPL mega auction, Brevis joined CSK mid-season as an injury replacement for Gurjapneet Singh.
