Player Story
Inspired by Australian legend Shane Warne, Amanda-Jade Wellington taught herself to bowl leg-spin in her backyard. In 2012, she became the youngest player, male or female, to represent South Australia when she made her Scorpions debut in the WNCL at 15-years-old and she has been a regular in the side ever since. Wellington has also been a big part of the Australian team over the years, debuting in 2016 and taking a wicket with her very first ball in international cricket. In December 2017, she was named in the ICC Women’s T20I Team of the Year and she went on to be a member of World Cup, Ashes and Commonwealth Games winning squads. The leg-spinner is also a handy batter in the lower order. Wellington is an avid Pokémon collector outside of cricket.
