Heather Graham, the 28-year-old Australian all-rounder, has announced her engagement to partner Rachel Amanda in a heartfelt Instagram post, news that arrived amid the ongoing sixth edition of the Women’s Hundred (21 June–16 August 2026).
Heather Graham’s revelation, shared with fans on her personal account, celebrates a private milestone for a player best known for her franchise exploits across the WBBL, WPL and The Hundred, even as she continues to make important on-field contributions this summer.
Graham’s international appearances remain limited, with five T20Is and one ODI since her ODI debut for Australia on 7 October 2019 against Sri Lanka in Brisbane, and her T20I debut on 11 December 2022 against India at DY Patil Stadium, but her reputation has been cemented through consistent franchise performances.
In the Women’s Big Bash League, she has been a mainstay for the Perth Scorchers and Hobart Hurricanes, compiling 1,594 runs in 149 matches at a strike rate of 103.37 and an average of 17.32 from 117 innings, including a pair of half-centuries. With the ball, Graham has been an effective medium-pacer, taking 157 wickets in 141 innings at an average of 21.43 and an economy of 7.21, with a best four-wicket haul.
It is in The Hundred where Graham has been particularly influential in recent seasons. Representing Trent Rockets, Sunrisers Leeds (formerly Northern Superchargers) and Welsh Fire across editions, she has claimed 28 wickets in 28 matches (27 innings) at an average of 19.17 and an economy of 7.16. Her standout moment in the current tournament came on her Welsh Fire debut on 22 July 2026 at the Rose Bowl, Southampton, where she produced a career-best spell of 4 for 19 from her quota of 20 deliveries against Southern Brave, a performance that underlined her ability to dominate in white-ball conditions despite Welsh Fire falling short by eight runs.
Graham’s batting in The Hundred has also been useful, contributing 341 runs in 27 innings (28 matches) at a strike rate of 124.90 and an average of 18.94, often providing brisk lower-order runs and crucial quickfire cameos. Her franchise footprint extends to the Women’s Premier League in India as well, where she has been on the rosters of Royal Challengers Bangalore and Mumbai Indians, further showcasing her value as a genuine global T20 all-rounder.
Off the field, the engagement announcement adds a personal chapter to Graham’s public journey. Her Instagram post, warmly received by teammates, franchises and fans, highlights how women’s cricket continues to be a space where professional success and personal authenticity coexist.
As Graham balances franchise commitments in this busy summer of women’s cricket, the engagement is a reminder of the person behind the performances: a player carving a distinctive career across global leagues while sharing life’s milestones with a growing public audience. For now, fans will watch both her on-field returns and off-field celebrations as the Women’s Hundred progresses further.
