New Delhi:

The 2018 Women’s Big Bash League features plenty of talented individuals who have the potential to play for Australia in the coming years. However, one 21-year-old, who plays for Melbourne Renegades has already taken the internet by storm with her unique talent. In a video posted on the official Twitter handle of the Melbourne Renegades (@RenegadesBBL) , a question was posed to the player, Maitlan Brown, about which talent she possessed other than cricket. In response, Brown managed to sing a song clearly with her mouth closed. The art of throwing a voice with a mouth closed is called Ventriloquism.

The only difference in Brown’s ventriloquism was that she did not ‘throw’ her voice through a dummy or a prop. Many famous ventriloquists ‘throw’ their voice on the stage through the use of a dummy. Brown, a right-arm pacer, has played in the Melbourne Renegades for the last three editions of the WBBL. She has played 25 matches and taken 19 wickets, with her best haul being 3/11. With the bat, she has an average of 10 but a strike rate of 113 and has often played some cameos towards the end of the innings. The teenager, who hails from Wingham, a coastal town in New South Wales, also plays for the ACT Meteors in the Women’s National Cricket League (WNCL).
