WPL 2024: Best batting performances of the tournament
Following the conclusion of the second WPL edition, it’s time to discuss five impressive batting displays of the tournament.
3. Beth Mooney’s unbeaten 85 off 51 against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB)
Gujarat’s ineffective performance in the competition disheartened their supporters but captain Beth Mooney did her job as a batter efficiently for the team. In match 13, when RCB and GG clashed in Delhi, Mooney wreaked havoc on the former’s bowlers and scored an unbeaten 85 off just 51.
Winning the toss, GG batted first and put up a massive score of 199 runs on the board. Mooney, along with her opening partner Laura Woolvardt, built a 140-run partnership for the first wicket. Woolvardt went back to the pavilion after scoring 76 off 45 but the Aussie stood at the crease until the end and decimated RCB’s bowling attack.
She concluded her knock on a score of unbeaten 85 off 51 and riding on her spunky innings, Giants won by 19 runs. Mooney’s amazing batting effort also got her the Player of the Match award.
