Tymal Mills, the former Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) speedster and England pacer, is stepping off the traditional cricket field and into the digital spotlight by launching an account on OnlyFans. But don’t expect risqué content—Mills is using the platform to offer fans a raw, behind-the-scenes look into his life as a professional cricketer, all through a lens of authenticity and connection.
Known for his express pace and fierce spells in The Hundred and T20 leagues around the world, the 32-year-old is now exploring a more personal way to stay connected with supporters. While OnlyFans is often associated with adult content, many athletes and creators are now reimagining the platform as a space for authentic engagement—and Mills is leading the charge in cricket.
A Candid Cricketing Diary
Speaking to The Times of India, Mills revealed that this new venture is about bridging the gap between players and fans in a way that traditional media can’t. “You can have that direct contact with fans and people who want to hear from you,” he explained.
The Sussex-born fast bowler shared that post-match interviews and press conferences often feel “manicured” and “generic,” failing to show the real emotions and experiences of players. On OnlyFans, Mills hopes to change that. “I can use this platform to talk about what I’m thinking and use footage and images to illustrate the good and bad of life as a cricketer,” he added.
Subscription Model and Content Plans
So, how much will fans have to pay to follow Mills on OnlyFans? Good news—basic subscription will be free.
“We’re still thrashing that out,” Mills said, referring to pricing for premium content. “But to subscribe will be free and then you will have to pay for certain pieces of content… I’m not looking to price people out.”
This freemium approach allows fans to get closer to Mills without breaking the bank, while offering exclusive content—possibly including training routines, recovery insights, and travel diaries—for those wanting more.
Life Beyond the International Circuit
Currently representing Southern Brave in The Hundred, Mills candidly admitted that his England days might be behind him. “That ship might have sailed,” he said, acknowledging his current distance from the national setup. “It doesn’t feel like I’m overly close to the setup. I’m at peace with that.”
Despite stepping away from the international spotlight, Mills is still focused on pushing boundaries—this time in digital storytelling. “Whatever I do, I want to be successful at it, and now I’m doing OnlyFans, I’m not going to go at it halfheartedly. I want to give it a really good go,” he emphasized.
Pioneering a New Digital Path for Cricketers
Mills’ move could pave the way for other professional cricketers to explore similar avenues. In an era where sports personalities are increasingly becoming content creators and influencers, platforms like OnlyFans—when used creatively—can offer an authentic voice and personal branding opportunity that goes far beyond cricket pitches and TV interviews.
For fans, this marks a chance to connect with a cricketer in an entirely new way—not as a distant sports hero, but as a relatable individual navigating the highs and lows of life, both on and off the field.
