She was given the captaincy of South Africa in 2007, aged 21, but after an accident at a swimming pool in which she damaged her back, she missed the series against the Netherlands and Pakistan, with Cri-Zelda Brits captaining the side instead.[1]

Fritz became the first South African woman to score a century in a Twenty20 Internationals when she scored 116* against Netherlands at the 2010 ICC Women's Cricket Challenge.[3]

In August 2019, Cricket South Africa appointed her to their Match Referees Panel for the 2019–20 cricket season.[4] In January 2021, she refereed in her first WODI matches, for all three fixtures between South Africa and Pakistan at the Kingsmead Cricket Ground.[5]
