This breakout performance paved the way for his swift transition into professional cricket, with Mumbai Indians securing his services in that year's IPL auction. As his reputation grew, Brevis became a fixture in franchise leagues worldwide. He joined St Kitts & Nevis Patriots for the 2022 Caribbean Premier League, where he memorably struck five consecutive sixes, before representing MI Cape Town in South Africa's SA20 and the Kandy Falcons in Sri Lanka's Lanka Premier League.
