Matthew Breetzke Posts Highest Individual ODI Score On Debut Vs NZ
Lucknow Super Giants: South African opener Matthew Breetzke etched his name into the record books by becoming the first batter to score 150 runs on ODI debut in second match of the ongoing tri-series against New Zealand at the Gaddafi Stadium on Monday.
His stunning knock of 150 off 148 balls, laced with 11 fours and five sixes, surpassed the previous record held by the legendary West Indies’ batter Desmond Haynes, who scored 148 in his maiden ODI innings against Australia back in 1978.
Before Breetzke’s innings, the highest score on ODI debut for South Africa was 124 by Colin Ingram against Zimbabwe in 2010. Now, Breetzke stands alone at the top, delivering a performance that showcased patience, aggression, and remarkable shot selection as South Africa posted a mammoth 304/6.
