Fresh off World Cup-winning campaigns with Australia, Perth Scorchers pair Alana King and Beth Mooney are both back in English colours for the 2026 Hundred, King pulling on Birmingham Phoenix purple, Mooney once again in Trent Rockets red.
The Hundred: Scorchers' WBBL World Cup Stars in Action
Different competition, same old Ms. Consistent. Beth Mooney has once again led the way for her team whacking 57 off 35 balls, with nine boundaries during last night's contest against Welsh Fire at Sophia Gardens in Cardiff.
Alana King, meanwhile, has only played in one match and was quiet with both the bat and the ball.
However, history suggests both will bounce back.
One of the competition’s most consistent performers, Mooney had amassed 571 runs in The Hundred prior to this season, showcasing her batting prowess against some of the world’s best players.
Representing the Rockets in four seasons before this year’s edition, King has taken 28 wickets at 24.28 while conceding little more than seven runs an over.
Be sure to catch them in action over the following weeks, with every match broadcast live on Kayo Sports.
