Lucy Hamilton is one of the most exciting young prospects in Australian cricket, known for her height, left-arm pace, and ability to swing the ball. A product of the Sunshine Coast Cricket Club, she made headlines as a teenage prodigy, becoming the second-youngest debutant for Queensland in the WNCL era at just 15 years old. By 2026, she has established herself as a key figure in domestic cricket and a future star on the international stage.

Playing for the Brisbane Heat, Hamilton became the youngest player in Women's Big Bash League history to claim a five-wicket haul. At 18 years old, she recorded remarkable figures of 5/8 against the Melbourne Stars, dismissing top-tier batters including Meg Lanning and Annabel Sutherland.

Her rapid rise led to her first overseas franchise contract, being signed by the Delhi Capitals for the 2026 Women's Premier League (WPL) season.
