The Hundred’s eight teams have released a new team trophy for collective participation in the men’s and women’s game alongside new-look kits for the 2026 edition of the tournament.
With 50 days to go until the opening match between MI London and Leeds SunRisers, the tournament announced that the new team trophy will reward collective efforts across both the men’s and women’s competitions, and will be awarded in addition to the men’s and women’s trophies.
“I really like the idea of the team trophy,” said London Spirit’s Jamie Overton. “The Hundred was pretty novel in terms of bringing the men’s and the women’s teams together – when you look at other sports, nobody else has really done it as well as cricket.

Ravi Bopara and Tash Farrant look at the biggest deals from The Hundred 2026 auction, including Danielle Gibson’s £190k move and £200k-plus bids for Beth Mooney and Sophie Devine.
“I think that’s been a pretty big factor in The Hundred enjoying the crowds it has.
“London Spirit women’s team have obviously had a good run in the competition across the last couple of years.
“I know we’re keen to emulate their success in the men’s team so hopefully this will help provide some extra inspiration to both teams.”

The Hundred has really become one of the most exciting parts of the summer for us,” echoed the SunRisers’ Kate Cross.
“The way it’s played, in the school holidays and in front of big crowds, means it’s always a great atmosphere and we love being a part of it.”
The Hundred are asking fans to submit suggestions for the name of the new team trophy, with the result to be confirmed at a later date.
