Vitality Blast sign Matthew Breetzke from Northants

Northamptonshire has signed South African top-order batsman Matthew Breetzke for the upcoming Vitality T20 Blast.

Breetzke, 25, has won three T20I caps for his country but was not named in South Africa's T20 World Cup squad and should be available for the group stage alongside Northamptonshire's other overseas signing, Zimbabwe all-rounder Sikandar Raza.

Breetzke stood out with his domestic T20 form in a tough market for overseas signings. He was the third-highest run-scorer in the 2023-24 SA20 with 416 runs at a strike rate of 135.50 for Durban's Super Giants. He then topped the list in the recently completed CSA T20 Challenge with 467 runs for the Warriors.

Breetzke said:

"I am very excited to join the Steelbacks for the upcoming Vitality Blast and really grateful for the opportunity. I hope to contribute a lot on and off the field during my time at the club."
