The Hundred 2025 draft is set to be a star-studded affair with who’s who of world cricket finding their name in the finalised list, including the England and Australian greats James Anderson and David Warner respectively, following their international retirement last year. Rocky Flintoff, 16, son of England legend Andrew Flintoff is also one of the names available in The Hundred 2025 draft, which is scheduled to happen on March 12.
Some of the big overseas names apart from David Warner for The Hundred 2025 draft are Andre Russell and Glenn Maxwell in the men’s side of things, while in women’s tournament, Sophie Devine, Deandra Dottin, and Alyssa Healy will be the sought-after names. It is important to note that David Warner and James Anderson are yet to play in The Hundred competition, and with that, they could be getting their first payday from the competition in the summer.
The Hundred 2025 season to begin on August 5
While Rocky Flintoff is a teenage sensation registering for The Hundred 2025 draft, some of the experienced players from the country alongside him are Jamie Overton, Rehan Ahmed, and Reece Topley in the men’s tournament, while in women’s side of things, Sophia Dunkley and Issy Wong are the big names. The Hundred is expected to be bigger and better with the advent of investment in each of the eight teams from local and foreign business entities.
Moreover, all the eight teams in the men’s and women’s tournaments have already retained and signed a few players for the 2025 season ahead of the draft in just a week’s time. The fourth season of The Hundred is set to kick-off on August 5 this year after England men’s national team takes on India in a blockbuster five-match Test series at home in the upcoming summer.
