The Hundred Women’s competition in 2026 would be a watershed moment in the professionalization of the English women’s game. Team strategies have evolved significantly since the first-ever full-scale player auction of the tournament was held in London. Salaries have been grossly inflated, and franchises have gone out of their way to build powerhouse lineups with a dynamic structure governing domestic and marquee international talent.
From joint-record bids to tactical rebrands—Oval Invincibles becoming MI London and Manchester Originals stepping up as Manchester Super Giants—the competition has never looked fiercer. Let us look at the squads.
