Australia's chase against in Mumbai on Day 3 of the pair's one-off Test got a little more interesting, thanks to Aussie batter Beth Mooney's hilarious brain-fade moment. Mooney, opening the innings as they looked to chase a mammoth 187-run target, surrendered her wicket cheaply; she meandered out of her crease after hitting a shot straight to Richa Ghosh and paid the price for lack of attention.

Debutant Ghosh, meanwhile, showed incredible awareness to not only thwart Mooney's shot bꦓut to capitalize on the smallest of win☂dows of opportunity. Watch the moment unfold here:
