Healy completed her second consecutive ODI ton in Women's World Cup with help of 13 fours in 100 balls. The special thing about her hundred was that she attained this feat in presence of her husband Mitchell Starc. The star Aussie pace bowler reached Christchurch to watch the final match of the ICC Women's World Cup 2022 between England and Australia.

Healy played a record-breaking unbeaten innings of 170 runs off 138 balls with 26 fours in the summit clash against England. This is Healy's fifth ODI century and her second consecutive century in this tournament. She had earlier scored a century (129 runs in 107 balls) against West Indies in the semi-finals. Healy has now become the first woman cricketer in the world to score 500 or more runs in a single World Cup edition.

A record-breaker 🌟
