The South African batter said the pitch at Chepauk was not easy for batting and felt the total on the board could prove competitive. Im very grateful. I think weve got a good score on the board. It wasnt one of the easiest wickets, but Im extremely grateful and yeah, its great to be out there, and Im excited to see what our bowlers have for us, Brevis said during the mid-innings break. CSK had started strongly through Sanju Samson before SRH fought back with timely wickets. Brevis then steadied the innings along with Shivam Dube and shifted momentum back in Chennais favour with his aggressive strokeplay. Speaking about the batting approach, Brevis said the team focused on staying positive and handling pressure situations smartly instead of searching for boundaries every ball. I think for us as a batting unit, I wont reveal too much, but its just to look after one ball at a time and be happy sometimes if its a tough ball and you dont get a maximum or something. So just to stay positive and stay in good positions, he added.
