Six Durham players will feature in the 2024 edition of The Hundred after the ECB today confirmed the players which are to be retained across their women’s and men’s squads.
Ben Stokes, Brydon Carse, Matthew Potts, Ollie Robinson and Callum Parkinson have all been retained with the Northern Superchargers based in Leeds while Nathan Sowter has been retained by the Oval Invincibles.
The Hundred returns in August, mixing fast-paced, world-class cricket with family friendly music and entertainment off the pitch as they look to build on an impressive past 3-years.
The Hundred Draft, powered by Sage, will take place at The Shard on Wednesday 20 March, live-streamed from 5.30pm on thehundred.com, YouTube and TikTok. Each team will take it in turns to select domestic and overseas players to complete their squads.
A record 580,000 fans were in attendance across The Hundred last season, including over 300,000 in the women’s competition. The Hundred’s blend of high-quality sport and entertainment saw 41% of all tickets sold to families, 23% to juniors and 30% to women.
From 13-27 March there will be an exclusive window open to buy tickets for fans who have previously attended The Hundred. There will be a priority window open from 9-23 April for all fans who sign up in advance at thehundred.com.
The general sale period begins from 25 April.
Tickets are once again great value, with prices set at £5 for juniors aged 3-15 (free for under 3s) and adults starting from £11. Season tickets went on sale alongside the launch of The Hundred fixtures, and they have sold out across all eight venues.
All games will again be live on Sky Sports and BBC broadcast and digital channels throughout the competition.
