The Hundred is back …

The Hundred is back in August. For those who aren’t familiar with the Hundred – its a fantastic new format of the game which has gained in popularity over the last few years :

  • International players
  • 100 balls per innings
  • The fielding side change ends after 10 balls
  • Bowlers deliver either five or 10 consecutive balls – the captain decides
  • Each bowler can deliver a maximum of 20 balls per match
