What's new for 2024?
Former England all-rounder Andrew Flintoff will take up his first head coaching role when he leads Northern Superchargers' men's side.
Flintoff - who played 227 times for his country across the formats between 1998 and 2009 and won The Ashes twice - has recently been part of England men's white-ball coaching staff, including at June's T20 World Cup in the Caribbean and USA.
England Test batter Harry Brook will captain Superchargers this year, while England red-ball skipper Ben Stokes is set to play in the tournament for the first time since 2021 with the all-rounder available for up to four games for the Headingley-based side.

England's Test batters, including Brook and Stokes, Joe Root (Trent Rockets), Zak Crawley (London Spirit) and Ben Duckett (Birmingham Phoenix) will be free to play following the conclusion of the third Test against West Indies from July 26-30, with the bowlers' availability dependent on workload and international selection.
New signings for the 2024 campaign include West Indies' Nicholas Pooran, with Flintoff choosing the hard-hitting left-hander for Superchargers with the opening pick in the draft.
Ollie Pope, Dawid Malan and Jason Roy are among those with new clubs - Pope has moved to London Spirit from Welsh Fire, Malan has swapped Trent Rockets for Oval Invincibles, while has Roy linked up with Flintoff at Superchargers after being released by Invincibles.
In the women's tournament, former Australia captain Meg Lanning will make her Hundred debut after being drafted by Spirit, while Sri Lanka skipper Chamari Athapaththu has been signed by Invincibles.
All England Women players will be available throughout the competition as it does not clash with any international cricket.
How do matches work?
- One hundred balls a side, the team with the most runs wins. It's as simple as that.
- Five bowlers can bowl up to 20 balls in an innings, including five or 10 in a row.
- The traditional six-ball overs seen in other forms of cricket are not used in The Hundred with 10 balls bowled before a change of ends.
- The powerplay is for the first 25 balls of an innings with only two fielders allowed outside the 30-yard circle.
- A 25-ball-a-side game is the minimum length that can be played in the event of wet weather
- If a match in the knockout stages is tied, a Super 5 will be played, with the winner being the team scoring the most runs from a further five balls each.
