Tayla Vlaeminck

Tayla Jade Vlaeminck (born 27 October 1998) is an Australian cricketer who plays as a right-arm fast bowler and right-handed batter for Australia, Victoria and Melbourne Renegades.

After taking the field for the Northern Rivers region in the under-14 girls state cricket championships, she joined the Victorian Under-14 team.

Just two matches after completing a full recovery and rehabilitation program, she suffered a second ACL injury, in the form of a partial tear.

During her WNCL debut, against the ACT Meteors at Manuka Oval in October 2017, she took the new ball; her 2-34 off seven overs included the wickets of Dane van Niekerk and Nicola Hancock.

A bout of glandular fever almost prevented her from joining that tour, but after a low key start, she captured 5–32 in 6.5 overs against South Africa in Pretoria.

[23] Vlaeminck played the first match in the series against England, before suffering another stress fracture leading up the 2022 Women's Cricket World Cup.

[26] She was named in the Australia squad for the 2024 ICC Women's T20 World Cup[27] but suffered a shoulder injury in the group match against Pakistan and was ruled out of the rest of the tournament.
