WATCH: Proteas star Laura Wolvaardt fooled by Zoom | The Citizen
South African cricketer Laura Wolvaardt has been caught out by Zoom — the online meeting platform.
In a hilarious video doing the rounds, Wolvaardt is asked a question at a press conference following the Proteas women’s team’s win against Bangladesh and while the opening batter can hear the question, she has no clue where it is coming from.
Wolvaardt was in the question and answer session following the Proteas’ win in the T20 World Cup, happening in Cape Town.

The opening batter answers a number of questions from the journalists present in the room and then the host moves to Zoom for a few questions. In the clip it is clear Wolvaardt is unaware the questions will now come from Zoom, even though the host mentions it.
The 23-year-old’s eyes dart left and right as she seeks the person from where the voice is coming and eventually asks, “Where is he?” as an ‘Amir’ asks a question.
‘Amir’ then asks, ” Can you hear me?” to which Wolvaardt answers, “Yes, I just don’t know where you are.”
There is much laughter before the cricketer is told, “I’m on Zoom.”
Wolvaardt says, “Oh, okay, sorry … like whoa!”
