Temperatures might be dropping but things are heating up in The Hundred as the halfway point in the 2026 season nears and the race for the top spots intensifies.
Only three of the eight franchises can progress for a shot at the title and, though the final feels a little way off now, every game matters in this competition.
White-ball cricket has taken centre stage as the sport’s great entertainers showcase their skills in a non-stop schedule.
The arrival of outside investment has brought a new dawn for the eight-team franchise competition. The 100-ball format remains, but there are new kits, new team names, a new combined competition and, after £4 million was spent in the auction in March, a host of new stars too.
MI London, formerly the Oval Invincibles, are hunting a fourth consecutive men’s title, while Sunrisers Leeds, who were previously the Northern Superchargers, won the women’s tournament in 2025.
The promise is that this season will be bigger and bolder than before – and the best news for fans is that they can sit back and watch non-stop cricket across July and August.
Radio Times brings you all the details about the schedule of The Hundred 2026.
