Alyssa Healy signed off from ODIs with a bang, hammering 158 runs off 98 balls in Hobart against India. The Australian captain’s knock—packed with 27 boundaries and 2 sixes—clinched her 8th century and made her final appearance a landmark event at Ninja Stadium.
Healy’s approach was measured at first, grinding through the early overs. She ticked off fifty in 49 balls (8×4), then exploded, racing to three figures in the next 30 deliveries for a 79-ball ton. It was a display of calculated aggression.
She laid solid foundations with partnerships: 32-run opening stand with Phoebe Litchfield, 104 with Georgia Voll (62 runs), and a whopping 145 for the third wicket with Beth Mooney. Bowled by Sneha Rana, Healy left the field to a thunderous ovation.
Career stats paint a portrait of excellence: 3,777 ODI runs in 126 matches (114 inns), 8×100, 19×50, HS 170. Tests: 489 runs (10 matches, 3 fifties). T20Is: 3,054 runs (162 matches, 143 inns), 1×100, 17×50, HS 148*. Debuting in 2010, she’s lifted 6 T20 World Cups and 2 ODI ones, starred in the 2022 final, and claimed ICC T20I honors twice. Healy’s legacy? Unmatched firepower and trophies.
