The 22-year-old saved South Africa from a 57-3 Tremblant and dominated a 126-point partnership with Tristan Stubbs (31).
“I am extremely grateful, just happy to be here on the winning side,” said Brevis, who exceeded the FAF of Plessis 119 against the Antilles in 2015.
Just playing his ninth international T20, Brevis broke eight six to leave the powerful range of Australian strikers with a difficult task.
The intimidating pursuit of Australia was made more difficult after the first counters of the opener Travis Head (five) and Cameron Green (new).
The Hopes of Australia rested with Tim David in shape, fresh out of his 83 winning in their 17 -point victory in the opening of the series at the same place.

Promoted to number four, David started with a border trio, then struck several six massifs, including one who landed on the roof.
But the assault of 24 David bullets ended 50 when he hit the lamb iron Kagiso Rabada directly to cover.
The pursuit of Australia lacked steam, obtained a loot for 165 in the 18th with Quicks Corbin Bosch and Kwena Maphaka picking up three counters each.
“Hunt it was always going to be difficult and we needed some partnerships, which we could not do,” said Australia Mitchell Marsh.
Without several key drummers for this tour, South Africa had trouble shooting in the opening match.
