Ashesand Australia Women: Australian opener Beth Mooney outscored the entire England lineup as Australia-W defeated England-W by 72-runs in another dominating performance in the Ashes series

Beth (94*) continued her purple patch with the bat, anchoring Australia's innings of 162/5 at the Adelaide Oval. England's chase was then nothing short of disastrous in the face of a clinical and ruthless Australia as they were bowled out for 90. Georgia Wareham (3-11) and Darcie Brown (2-25) led the way as England crumbled to 7-48, and were eventually bowled out in 17.3 overs.

After Beth’s onslaught in the first innings, Australia continued their dominance in the second innings with Brown bowling out opener Sophia Dunkley with her first delivery. Wickets followed at regular intervals as England captain Heather Knight tried to save the innings for her side but her 40-run contribution went to waste with no batter able to support her out in the middle.
