THE RACE TO 1000 RUNS
In the tournament's fifth season, nine batters passed the 1000 run mark in 2025, with Trent Rockets star Nat Sciver-Brunt the first one to reach four figures.

She has also reached 50 runs in an innings more than any other men's or women's player, raising her bat ten times in 36 innings for the Rockets.

A HALF-CENTURY OF WICKETS
Sciver-Brunt's fellow England star Lauren Bell became the first player to take 50 wickets in The Hundred. Starting the year with 41 victims in the competition, she sailed past the 50 mark onto 60 wickets by the end of the tournament.
Bell had a remarkable tournament in 2025, marking her out as one of the best short-format bowlers in the world. Her 19 wickets came at an incredible average of 8.47, while she conceded just 5.39 runs per five balls.
Three other bowlers reached 50 wickets in The Hundred this year - Amanda-Jade Wellington (52 wickets), Tymal Mills (51) and Kate Cross (50).
OVERSEAS STARS SHINE IN WOMEN'S GAME
With the ICC Women's T20 World Cup taking place in England and Wales in 2026, fans got a taste of what to expect thanks to standout performances from some of the world's best short-format players.
Superchargers duo Annabel Sutherland (206 runs and 16 wickets) and Phoebe Litchfield (292 runs and the MVP award) will undoubtedly be key players in Australia's squad as they look to regain the World Cup that they've won six times. Sutherland currently tops the ICC's T20 bowler rankings, but her batting prowess makes it only a matter of time before she's dominating the all-rounder list as well.
West Indies icon Hayley Matthews, ranked the number one women's T20 all-rounder by the ICC, took 14 wickets for Welsh Fire, while five more of the top ten also featured in the competition - Melie Kerr (New Zealand), Ash Gardner (Australia), Marizanne Kapp (South Africa), Sophie Ecclestone (England) and Kathryn Bryce (Scotland).
South Africa's Laura Wolvaardt remains one of the best batters in the world, averaging nearly 35 runs per innings in Southern Brave's unbeaten group stage and will be a pivotal player in the Proteas' bid to go one better than their runner-up place in 2024.

PERRIN'S RAPID CENTURY
It seems that every edition of The Hundred hails the arrival of a teenage star of the women's game.
Alice Capsey lit up the 2021 competition as a 16-year-old, scoring 59 from 41 balls in front of a full house at The Kia Oval in just her second game. In 2024, Tilly Corteen-Coleman surpassed Capsey's record of being The Hundred's youngest ever player and dismissed Aussie legend Meg Lanning with her fourth ball.
In 2025 it was Davina Perrin's turn to embrace the spotlight. She earned plenty of headlines after her second match of the competition, where she scored an unbeaten 72 from 40 balls to help Northern Superchargers beat Trent Rockets, but it was during the Eliminator against London Spirit where the cricket world really stopped to take notice.
After a run of low scores, Perrin clicked back into form with a scintillating 101 from 43 balls - recording only the second ever century in the women's competition, and the second fastest ever in either the men's or women's; two balls slower than Superchargers' colleague Harry Brook's 41-ball effort.
And she could have scored even more, had she not been run-out at the non-strikers' end when batting partner Annabel Sutherland hit a straight drive a bit too straight.
Could Perrin earn herself a place in England's squad for the ICC Women's T20 World Cup on these shores in 2026?
IT'S RAINING SIXES!
Batters were clearing the ropes at a ferocious rate in The Hundred 2025. In the men's tournament we saw the second-most sixes ever (371), behind only 2022 (403), with Oval Invincibles trio Jordan Cox (22), Donavan Ferreira (18), and Sam Curran (16) combining for 56 maximums.
Ferreira averaged a six every 4.28 balls faced, with a strike-rate of 235 runs scored per 100 balls, marking him out as the tournament's ultimate finisher.
Cox's 22 sixes were the most in any edition of The Hundred since Liam Livingstone smashed 27 of them in the inaugural competition in 2021. Meanwhile in the women's competition, London Spirit's Grace Harris hit 11 sixes - the most ever recorded in one edition and five more than her nearest rivals this year, which included fellow Australian Meg Lanning.
