Australia have cruised to victory over hosts England in their penultimate T20 World Cup warm-up with veteran duo Ellyse Perry and Beth Mooney leading the way.
After restricting England to 6-157 in Cardiff Australia knocked off the runs with five wickets and ten balls to spare, the result rarely looking in doubt.
With 12 Australians either batting, bowling, or both, the match was not entirely serious, but the victory was comprehensive, tight bowling being followed by imperious batting.
After Mooney set the platform with a 26-ball 43, Perry hit a ruthless 44-ball 64 to leave England pondering a clear gulf between the sides.
There was a scare before the start when Phoebe Litchfield, listed to bat at 3, was withdrawn as a precaution after feeling "quad awareness", a reference to the muscles at the front of the thigh.
