Perth: Kunja cricketer Mikayla Hinkley has etched her name into the Western Australian Premier Cricket record books, blasting an unbeaten double century in a partnership that rewrote the competition’s milestones. The innings, played under the state’s Saturday sun, vaulted the right-hander into rare territory and powered her side to a commanding total.
Hinkley’s knock was chanceless and relentless, featuring clean ball-striking to all corners of the ground. The double-ton came at better than a run-a-ball, underscoring her dominance against a flagging attack that had no answer to her aggressive mindset. The milestone partnership—details of which are still being tallied by statisticians—surpassed any previous stand in WA Premier Cricket history, according to officials at the ground.
Teammates hailed the effort as proof of the 25-year-old’s maturation at the crease, while opponents could only watch as the total spiralled beyond reach. The innings continues a sharp upward curve for Hinkley, who has represented Western Australia at higher levels and is now forcing national selectors to take notice.
With the record books rewritten and the season hitting its pointy end, Hinkley’s innings will be remembered as the day a Kunja product turned a routine fixture into a highlight-reel classic.
