Women’s World Cup: Hopefully We Can Keep Wolvaardt Quiet, Says Knight

By IANS News October 03, 2025 • 10:52 AM View: 257

ODI World Cup: England’s senior batter have identified South Africa captain Laura Wolvaardt as the key threat ahead of the two teams opening their 2025 Women’s ODI World Cup campaign at the ACA Stadium.

Since the time Laura became South Africa’s captain, she has been a key figure in their batting charge alongside fellow opener Tazmin Brits.

“South Africa is a very good team. We obviously played them recently in a series in South Africa and had some success, but they’ve got some brilliant players. I think they’ve done really well under Laura’s (Wolvaardt) captaincy.”
