The duo shared a 54-run stand before the captain left for the dugout.Although the hosts kept losing wickets at regular intervals, Breetzke stayed calm but also punished the Aussies, scoring his maiden international century at home.Matthew Breetze's six hits a young girlAmong his multiple maximums, one of the Matthew Breetzke's sixes off Adam Zampa’s bowling went sailing over the deep mid-wicket fence and into the crowd.

Watch: Due a spectator's mistake, Matthew Breetze's six injures a fangirlRehan 56 @imrehan56 🚨 HUGE SIX BY BREETZKE! 🤯💥 The ball crashes into a girl in the crowd! 😥 Sep 24, 2026, 3:24 PM Matthew Breetzke, the next big thing from South Africa Matthew Breetzke, who started his ODI career with a century on debut in Pakistan, scored his first ODI century on South African soil while playing his first 50-over match at home.At the time of writing, his unbeaten knock comprised of 12 boundaries and two biggies, as he notched up his ton off 100 balls. Notably, the South African batter also equalled India’s Navjot Singh Sidhu’s record for most 50+ scores in the first 14 ODI innings. Both the stylish batters notched eight 50+ scores in their first 14 ODI outings, respectively. Interestingly, Breetzke had scored 50 or more runs in each of his first five ODIs. With each innings, he is making a strong case for himself to be included in the South African squad for the next ODI World Cup, which will be co-hosted at home. South Africa on course to a respectable score vs Australia at DurbanAt the time of publishing, the South Africans are on the verge of posting a respectable total at 244/5 after 45 overs. Apart from Matthew Breetzke, no other South African recognised batter has contributed much. Temba Bavuma and Ryan Rickelton got starts, but couldn’t convert them into big knocks. However, Marco Jansen is playing a vital role down the order, scoring his third ODI half-century.Without Breetzke-Jansen’s stand, the Proteas might have folded well inside 200. That said, it would be interesting to see how the home team go in the latter innings, without the likes of Kagiso Rabada, Lungi Ngidi and Kwena Maphaka through their ranks.
