Format
The format of The Hundred 2024 was released by England and Wales Cricket Board earlier this year. This format was brought in with a vision to attract more people towards Cricket. The format of this tournament includes:
- 100 balls per innings.
- A change of ends after 10 balls.
- Bowlers deliver either five or 10 consecutive balls.
- Each bowler can deliver a maximum of 20 balls per game.
- Each bowling side gets a strategic timeout of up to two and a half minutes.
- A 25-ball powerplay start for each team.
- Two fielders are allowed outside of the initial 30-yard circle during the powerplay.
- Teams will be able to call timeouts, as has been the case in the Indian Premier League since 2009.
- A simplified scoreboard is also proposed.
The top three teams will contest for the final. The first-placed team will automatically be sent directly to the final. Whereas, the second and third-placed teams will contest between themselves to book a seat in the final.
