The dynamic right handed opener suffered an open fracture to his right index finger after being struck by a Nandre Burger delivery in their final MODC match against the Six Gun Grill Cape Cobras last week, a match which saw the Eastern Cape side end the competition with just one win to their name. Speaking to The Herald on Thursday, Breetzke said he underwent surgery on the fractured right index finger earlier this week and is now in a race to be fit in time for the start of the CSA T20 Challenge.
