Australia warmed up for the defence of their ICC Women’s T20 World Cup crown with a 33-run victory over England. Beth Mooney grabbed a half-century as Australia came out on top in Dubai, a good sign as they look to make it four consecutive titles in this tournament.
Having been put into bat, the Australians made 162-6 from their 20 overs with Beth Mooney giving them the perfect start. She needed just 30 balls to crack a half-century, helping set the platform despite Alyssa Healy (12) and Ellyse Perry (7) not firing.
