Australia opener Beth Mooney will miss the remainder of the Women's Premier League due to a calf injury that will require up to six weeks to heal, Cricket Australia said on Thursday.
The 29-year-old missed the next two matches and will now travel home for rehabilitation, with South Africa's Laura Wolvaardt replacing her in the Gujarat squad. "I was really looking forward to the maiden WPL season ... but unfortunately injuries are part and parcel of the sport and I am gutted to be missing the remainder of the season," Mooney said in a statement.
"Though I will be away from the field of play for the rest of the season, I am looking forward to coming back stronger, fitter and I will definitely be hungrier next season."
