3rd ODI: Mooney Smashes 138 As Australia Post Their Joint-highest Total In Women's ODIs
Arun Jaitley Stadium: Beth Mooney produced a batting masterclass for ages by smashing a scintillating 138 as Australia zoomed their way to a gigantic 412, their joint-highest total in women's ODIs, in the series-deciding game against India at the Arun Jaitley Stadium here on Saturday.
On a sweltering afternoon, Australia came out all guns blazing to conjure up a captivating boundary-hitting fest. They made full use of a flat pitch, short boundary sizes, quick outfield, and erratic Indian bowling plus fielding performances to put themselves in the driver’s seat for a 2-1 series win.
Skipper Alyssa Healy set the tone with a brisk 30 and put India bowlers under early pressure, before Georgia Voll and Ellyse Perry carried the momentum forward with fluent knocks of 81 and 68, respectively. Beth Mooney hit the ground running from the word go and ensured Australia didn’t lose tempo by hitting boundaries quite regularly.
