Have you ever wondered which app your favourite cricketer turns to in their free time, or what platform they use to share their favourite pictures?
Our smartphones may be small, but they hold so much of our lives—our favourite songs, cherished memories, and inspiring quotes. They house a unique blend of apps, photos, messages, and music that reflect our personalities and lifestyles, serving as a digital tapestry of who we are.
We asked Wandile Makwetu of the DP World Lions to share what’s on his phone, giving us a glimpse into his device and insights into the person we love to watch on screen as he goes into battle in the T20 Challenge.
What are your 3 most used apps on your phone?
WM: Instagram, TikTok and WhatsApp
Which app do you have but never use?
WM: I have True Caller but never check who is trying to phone me. I usually answer if I recognise the number.
What is the last thing you googled on your phone?
WM: “What season is it in France?’’
Name your 3 favourite songs on your phone
WM: Who You Are by Jessie J; I Drink Wine by Adele and Middle of the Ocean by Drake.
Are you a caller or a texter?
WM: I prefer texting. A few things rub me the wrong way, like an unexpected phone call with no notice.
This sneak peek gives fans insight into how technology and personal interests intertwine in a cricketer’s life. Digital connections serve not only as tools for communication but also, as snapshots of our relationships and passions.
