England fast bowler Tymal Mills will not be permitted to wear a logo promoting his OnlyFans account on his bat during The Hundred Men’s 2025. While OnlyFans is well-known for hosting adult content, Mills, the competition’s all-time leading men’s wicket-taker, has stated that his channel only offers completely safe, non-explicit video.
Mills joined OnlyFans last week, promising fans a deeper, more personal look at the life of a professional cricketer. He described it as a fresh opportunity for him to share his enthusiasm with his fans, while also focusing his material on health and lifestyle for his platform followers.
Although he has played two matches this season without the logo, any such branding would require permission from the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB), which will not be granted. According to BBC Sport, the ECB believes the OnlyFans brand does not connect with The Hundred’s family-friendly image, and Mills is expected to accept the decision.
The left-arm pacer, who played in England T20 World Cup-winning squad in 2022, bowled well in his Southern Brave debut against Manchester Originals last week; he took 3-22 and mained a match-winning 6 runs in a one-wicket win.
This is not the first time that an athlete’s OnlyFans activities has sparked criticism. Paddle UK suspended British canoeist Kurts Adams Rozentals, who competes in the individual canoe slalom, in May due to complaints regarding his social media content. Rozentals said that he was forced to choose between his Olympic goals and his OnlyFans account.
“Just to be a thousand percent clear, there will be no glamour shots. This is all about pure cricket and lifestyle material. It’s uncharted territory but it’s something I’m really excited about. There’s no hiding from the fact they are best known for porn. But what I’ll be doing will be far from that. When you lift the lid and speak to them and understand where they want to go and what the potential is, it really is exciting,” Mills said earlier about the decision to join the platform.
The left-arm bowler has three wickets in his first two appearances in the prestigious English championship. He’s also scored eight runs with his bat.
