LONDON: English cricket takes a step into the unknown with the launch of the Hundred, a brand new 100 balls per side format, on Wednesday.
Cricket already has several established professional formats at domestic and international level first-class games, which includes five-day Tests, 50 overs per side one-dayers and Twenty20 matches.
But even though Twenty20 was pioneered as a professional sport in England, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) are convinced an even shorter format is needed to attract a new, younger and more ethnically diverse audience to the sport.
Rather than rely on the current 18 county set-up, the Hundred will feature eight specially created franchise teams all featuring men’s and women’s sides.
