South Africa Teenager Pretorius Becomes Youngest Test Cricketer to Score 150 on Debut

  • Lhuan-Dre Pretorius made his Test debut for South Africa on June 28, 2025, in Bulawayo against Zimbabwe, scoring 153 runs.
  • Pretorius achieved this after South Africa's top order collapsed to 55 for 4, requiring young players like him to stabilize the innings.
  • He reached his century off 112 balls, the fastest hundred by a South African on Test debut, and scored his 150 from 157 balls, setting a new national debut record.
  • At 19 years and 93 days old, Pretorius set a new record as the youngest South African to reach a century in Test cricket, breaking a record that had stood since 1964.
  • The innings helped South Africa reach 418 for nine on day one despite a limited senior squad resting after winning the World Test Championship earlier in June 2025.
