Beth Mooney Player Profile

Beth Mooney is one of the most consistent and versatile batters in women’s cricket, equally adept at opening the innings or anchoring the middle order while also keeping wickets. The 32-year-old from Shepparton, Victoria, made her domestic debut for Queensland Fire at just 16 and has since become a cornerstone of Australia’s dominant era. Her international breakthrough came in 2016, and she has never looked back, scoring centuries across all three formats including a Test hundred at the MCG in the 2025 Ashes. Mooney’s ability to perform on the biggest stages is legendary—she forged a tournament-winning partnership with Alyssa Healy in the 2020 T20 World Cup final at the MCG and played one of the finest ODI run-chases with an unbeaten 125 against India in Mackay in 2021. Domestically, she has been a WBBL powerhouse, leading Brisbane Heat to back-to-back titles with Player of the Match innings in both finals before moving to Perth Scorchers, where she helped them to their first title. A two-time Belinda Clark Award winner, Mooney continues to be a vital presence for Australia and a leader in the global women’s game.
