The competition has been played since 2021 and has been building up an impressive fan base. Some questioned whether another format of the game was necessary as it then saw new rules brought into play which could become confusing for fans.
Questions around the new format was perhaps loudest due to the huge success of the Indian Premier League and Australian Big Bash League, with both played in the established Twenty20 format. However, the hundred ball format has proved popular, with fans turning out in their droves to watch a range of top class talent play cricket.
Key players across the tournament include major English names such as Joe Root, Jofra Archer, Jos Buttler, Harry Brook, Adil Rashid and Phil Salt. Some world class overseas talent has also taken to the competition, with Faf du Plessis, Steve Smith, Trent Boult and Rashid Khan all making their mark.
The Hundred Popular Betting Markets
- Top Batter: When you throw players like Jos Buttler, Aiden Markram, Harry Brook, Jacob Bethell, Jonny Bairstow, Tristan Stubbs, Mitch Marsh, Finn Allen and Phil Salt into one competition, there will be fireworks. The competition itself champions big hitting and while there are some world class bowlers taking to the field, the bat will likely have the advantage over the ball.
- The Hundred Winner: The Hundred has been a tournament that has been dominated by MI London, with the side winning three competitions in 2023, 2024 and 2025. Southern Brave and Trent Rockets have also won, but the focus will be on stopping MI London.
