The fifth edition of The Hundred – both Men’s and Women’s tournaments – is all set to begin on Tuesday, August 5, 2025. Featuring eight competitive teams, the 100-ball tournament will follow a single-round robin format, with the top three teams advancing to the playoffs.
The final will be held at the historic Lord’s Cricket Ground on Sunday, August 31, making it the ultimate stage for crowning the 2025 champions.
The Hundred Format and Opening Fixtures
Each team will face every other team once during the league stage. The team finishing at the top of the points table will earn a direct spot in the final, while the second and third-placed teams will compete in an eliminator to decide the other finalist.
The tournament kicks off with an exciting double-header at Lord’s, as London Spirit (Men & Women) take on Oval Invincibles (Men & Women).
