Southern Brave fast bowler Tymal Mills has been barred from showcasing the OnlyFans logo on his bat during The Hundred, following a decision by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB).
First Cricketer on OnlyFans Faces Early Hurdle
Mills, a former Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) star, recently made headlines by becoming the first cricketer to join OnlyFans. While the platform is largely associated with adult content, Mills clarified that his page is dedicated to cricket and lifestyle material. Despite this, the ECB ruled that the brand’s image was not in line with the “family-friendly nature” of the tournament.
According to BBC Sport, the 33-year-old pacer complied with the decision and played Southern Brave’s opening matches of the 2025 season without the logo.
Mills Explains His Content Plans
Speaking to The Athletic, Mills revealed his aim is to give fans an authentic, behind-the-scenes look into a professional cricketer’s life — steering away from what he described as “manicured” and “generic” media appearances.
“This is all about pure cricket and lifestyle material. It’s uncharted territory, but something I’m really excited about,” he said.
Most of his content will be free, including personal thoughts, exclusive footage, and candid moments from his career.
On-Field Impact Despite Controversy
The controversy hasn’t affected Mills’ form. In Southern Brave’s opening match against Manchester Originals, he played a crucial role in the win, taking three wickets for just 22 runs and adding six valuable runs with the bat.
Mills has also enjoyed success in the Indian Premier League (IPL), representing both RCB and Mumbai Indians (MI). Across 10 IPL matches, he has taken 11 wickets. His reputation as a skilled death bowler was cemented when RCB bought him for ₹12 crore in the 2017 auction.
