Mas Elysa Yasmin Zulkifli (born 19 May 2001) is a Malaysian cricketer.[1] She made her Women's Twenty20 International (WT20I) debut for Malaysia on 3 June 2018, in the 2018 Women's Twenty20 Asia Cup.[2]

She once held the record for the best bowling figures in a Twenty20 International, by taking 6/3 from 4.0 overs against China at the Thailand Women's T20 Smash on 16 January 2019 at Asian Institute of Technology Ground in Bangkok.[3] Her feat was reported in Malaysia newspapers, unusually for women's cricket in the country.[4][5] In April 2021, she was one of 15 players to be awarded a contract by the Malaysian Cricket Association, the first time female cricketers for the Malaysian team had been granted contracts.[6]

In November 2021, she was named in Malaysia's side for the 2021 ICC Women's T20 World Cup Asia Qualifier tournament in the United Arab Emirates.[7] In October 2022, she played for Malaysia in Women's Twenty20 Asia Cup. In September 2023, she was selected in Malaysia's 2023 Asian Games squad.[8]
