Beth Mooney eyes 2029 World Cup & 2032 Olympics
14 Oct
Summary
- Beth Mooney targets 2029 Women's Cricket World Cup.
- Olympics in 2028 and 2032 are also in her sights.
- Mooney aims to reach 100 one-day international matches.
Australian wicketkeeper-batter Beth Mooney is planning her future in cricket, with aspirations to compete in the 2029 Women's Cricket World Cup. She is also eyeing potential participation in the 2028 Los Angeles and 2032 Brisbane Olympic Games. Mooney is set to achieve her 100th ODI cap soon.
The 32-year-old considers the Olympics a significant factor in extending her international career. Cricket is slated for the LA Games and possibly Brisbane in 2032, which could see Mooney play on home soil at age 38.
Mooney expressed disappointment over Australia's 2025 World Cup semi-final loss but is driven to help the team win the 50-over title in 2029. She also praised the aggressive batting style of younger teammates Phoebe Litchfield and Georgia Voll.
Australia will subsequently play New Zealand in a T20 series before the Women's Champions Trophy next year.
