What is the Hundred? The rules, teams and players as a 100-ball tournament return in 2022

The decision rating system using Hawkeye is available for the first time in domestic cricket in England, as is a ‘smart replay’ system that automatically calls no balls (resulting in a free hit).

One of the main goals of the Hundred is to complete matches in two and a half hours ending at 9pm to attract young families. Teams are on the clock all the time. 50 seconds are allowed for end change for broadcasters.

The fielding side may declare a two-minute time-out when the head coach can come on the field and discuss tactics with players. It is not required and can only be called after 25 legitimate balls have been bowled in an inning.

There is a 25 ball power play when only two fielders are allowed outside the inner circle and umpires call “five” at the end of an over instead of “over”. They also hold up a white card to signify the end of one side’s first five legitimate balls.

What are the teams and who are the players?
