Cricket Journey: Thisumi has been playing cricket for eight years, growing into a strong all-rounder with grit and vision. Her proudest moment so far? Scoring 50 for Cheshire against Lancashire — a performance that reflects her sharp mindset and composure under pressure. That innings wasn't just about runs; it was about confidence, execution, and showing that she could rise to any challenge.

She dreams of playing for Lancashire Thunder and turning professional. But more than that, she wants to make cricket more inclusive — especially for girls who’ve been told the game isn’t for them. Thisumi leads with purpose, using her own journey as proof that the pitch is a place where girls can thrive, lead, and leave a mark.

Why Maiden: Thisumi became a Maiden ambassador because she knows how powerful visibility is. She believes in giving girls the confidence to step forward and be seen — in the right kit, with the right support. Maiden’s commitment to girls' cricket isn’t performative — it’s real, it’s bold, and it’s long overdue.

Through Maiden, Thisumi is helping rewrite the story of who cricket is for. She’s not just representing a brand — she’s representing every girl who wants to walk into this sport and feel like she belongs.
