Tymal Mills says OnlyFans will give him a chance to connect directly with fans. He said, 'You can talk directly to the fans and connect with those who want to hear from you.' Mills said that players talk to the media before and after the match. But those talks are often pre-planned. He will use this platform to express his thoughts and talk about the good and bad days in cricket.
Along with this, the left-arm fast bowler said that subscribing to his account will be free. But to watch some special content, money will have to be paid. He does not want anyone to have to pay more money. Mills is currently playing for Southern Brave in 'The Hundred'. So far in his T20 International career, he has played 16 matches and taken 14 wickets. He plays in T20 leagues around the world. Mills has taken 310 wickets in 251 T20 matches.
OnlyFans is a British website that was launched in 2016. It is more famous for pornography and people create pornographic content by creating accounts on it. People have to pay money to see the videos or photos of that content creator. Now with the joining of Tymal Mills, people have started speculating that he will also create such content to earn money. However, Mills does not agree with this.
Mills, currently playing for Southern Brave in 'The Hundred', admits that his ambitions of playing for England are probably over now. Mills' career has been full of ups and downs. He had tremendous talent, but he could not become a legendary cricketer. Mills made his debut for England only in the T20 format. He took 14 wickets in 16 matches. During this his economy was 8.83. In the IPL, Mills got a chance to play for two teams, but he could not take advantage of it. In 2017, he took 5 wickets in 5 matches for Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at an economy rate of 8.57.
Tymal Mills played for Mumbai Indians in the year 2022. He took 6 wickets in 5 matches. Mumbai Indians bought him for 1.5 crores. Talking to The New York Times, Tymal Mills said that he would only talk about cricket on this platform. He said that nothing else would be wrong. Mills said that I want to make it clear that there will be no glamorous shots in it. He is completely related to cricket. This is an unknown field for me but I am very excited to come on it.
Unsurprisingly, Mills’ move has sparked robust debate within cricket and broader sports circles. Some admire his willingness to innovate and embrace risk. Others question whether a platform tethered to adult content is the right fit for athlete-driven material, suggesting Patreon or YouTube as safer options. Mills, however, views the visibility and sponsorship potential of OnlyFans as key drivers—it’s precisely the controversy that generated attention he might not receive elsewhere.
Mills knows his England days may be behind him—injuries derailed his early Test career, though he remains a feared T20 specialist and current leader at Southern Brave in The Hundred. He’s made peace with moving forward: "I haven’t represented England as much as I’d like, but my focus now is on excelling in tournaments I play. If the call comes, great, but the journey continues regardless”.
Tymal Mills talked about recently joining the infamous website, OnlyFans. The pacer is the first cricketer to join the platform, which is reputed for all the wrong reasons. When asked about whether he will be following the same route, Mills categorically answered that his content will be safe for work.
So the major question that arises is what will be the content that Tymal Mills will be uploading on the website? He talked about how he will be uploading content that is mainly related to cricket, but also some lifestyle content. Mills wants to use the platform and talk about the negative sides of the sport.
The left-arm pacer who recently turned 33 is branching out of playing cricket. While speaking with The Telegraph, Mills revealed that the process of joining the platform started a year ago. “The conversations first started about a year ago, so I read up, held conversations and did my due diligence. I hadn’t quite realised how big the company was. They’re trying to get into football, get Premier League footballers on the platform. They’re doing well with “smaller” sports like surfing and skateboarding, individual sports,” he said.
Having been diagnosed with a congenital back condition in 2015, Mills could not apply himself in List A cricket and First-Class cricket since 2015. He became a T20 specialist and travelled around the world plying his trade for different franchises. Having played under different captains and leadership groups along with playing in countries with different cultures, Mills believes that he will have a lot to talk about.
The Southern Brave pacer added, “I am going to talk about the bad side of the game. On social media, you predominantly see the great stuff, highlights, sixes, fours, wickets. But what happens when you get whacked, or get dropped. It doesn’t make it to social media because that’s not great self-promotion. I will try to be as open as I can and show both sides of the coin.”
The England Cricket Board rejected Tymal Mills’ request to have the OnlyFans logo on his bat while playing in The Hundred. The decision was made keeping in mind that the platform is unsuitable for a family-friendly event.
