As soon as the Australian ‘keeper-batter asked the Mumbai Indians to bat, everything went wrong for the Giants as they saw Harmanpreet Kaur-led side amass a monstrous total of 5–207.
The left-hander, who was leading the big chase, faced just three balls when she was forced to retire hurt. She went back to the dressing room without scoring after twisting her ankle while attempting to take a quick single.
The Giants’ terrible innings didn’t end there, as they were dismissed for 64 in just 15.1 overs.
Mooney’s ability to participate in Sunday’s second game against the UP Warriorz, a team led by her Australian opening partner Alyssa Healy, is now much in doubt.
Sneh Rana can now lead the GG vs UP Warriorz.
The Giants have made significant investments in Australian talent, hiring head coach Rachael Haynes, captain Mooney for $350,000, and top all-rounder Ashleigh Gardner for $558,000.

The Giants’ potent Australian quartet included Georgia Wareham, Annabel Sutherland, and Mooney, who had all participated in Australia’s winning team in the T20 World Cup final victory over South Africa during the previous weekend in Cape Town.
