BethMooney

Beth Mooney was a regular face around the Australian set-up prior to her international debut, travelling as back-up wicketkeeper to Alyssa Healy.

These days, she is better known as a multiple World Cup winner, two-time Belinda Clark Award winner, two-time T20 World Cup player of the tournament, and one of the best batters in the world with a penchant for producing her best in the biggest games.

Breakout performances for Australia A and at the domestic level in 2015 were enough for Mooney to be selected as a specialist batter, making her Australia debut in the 2015-16 T20 series against India.

In 2017, Mooney scored her maiden One-Day International hundred against New Zealand, then made her Test debut against England in 2017.

Cementing her spot at the top of Australia's T20 order, she helped them take out the 2018 T20 World Cup and then went one better in 2020, named player of the tournament as Australia claimed their fifth T20 title. 

Mooney's knack for stepping up in the big moments continued as Australia won gold at the Commonwealth Games in 2022 and another T20 World Cup in South Africa in 2023.

In Australia's undefeated charge to the 2026 T20 World Cup title she was named player of the tournament for a second time, as well as player of the final with her 64 off 49-balls steering Australia to a record run-chase for a final with no qualms.

A two-time WBBL title winner for Brisbane Heat, Mooney's impact was felt in her second season at Perth Scorchers in WBBL|07, as she helped them to the title.

She has won the Belinda Clark award on two occasions, in 2020-21 and 2022-23.
