The Hundred

  • Ed Warner: Is Infantino a moonbeam or a clown? Either way, Fifa boss is here to stay

    Opinion

    Gianni Infantino. Moonbeam or clown? Flibbertigibbet? Certainly. Problem-solver, or problem to be solved? All depends on where you are coming from – quite literally. Just don’t expect Fifa’s demon/angel (delete according to taste) president to be going anywhere soon. Most likely not until 2031. Football’s Swiss-Italian head honcho has been front and centre of the [...]

  • Ed Warner: Richard Thompson must continue bold start at helm of English cricket

    Opinion

    No deckchair shuffling for Richard Thompson. English cricket’s new leader has pretty much cleared the deck of the governing body’s directors.

  • Ed Warner: How to solve the Hundred and help county cricket with private money

    Opinion

    The Hundred isn’t going away, whatever diehard cricket traditionalists might wish. It’s been cemented into the English calendar until at least 2028 by a television deal finalised just before the arrival of the England and Wales Cricket Board’s new chair.  Richard Thompson, erstwhile arch-critic of the controversial competition, now finds his room for manoeuvre severely [...]

  • First, England. Next, the world? Why those behind The Hundred have big ambitions

    March 21, 2022

    “Every successful brand in the world has to start somewhere, in one geography,” says Nick Sykes, global chief executive of FutureBrand, the company that developed the branding for The Hundred, English cricket’s newest tournament. “But if you look at sporting formats around the world, many of them have travelled geographies and there are large parts [...]

  • Why sport is taking over terrestrial TV airwaves again

    February 21, 2022

    If you’ve turned on your subscription-free, Nadine Dorries-unfriendly, terrestrial TV recently you may have been transported back to a time when moustachioed behemoths like Dickie Davies and Des Lynam ruled the afternoon airwaves – for we again live in an era of live, free-to-air sport. Of course, you may not have noticed. Sky and BT [...]

  • The strange case of The Hundred: a North-South divide?

    January 1, 2022

    Recently this country has been roughly split down the middle on, well, virtually everything. Opinions are polarised and if there’s a fence in the middle, we’re damn well not sitting on it.  Summer 2021 saw a new concept dividing the nation. Sports fans, I give you the strange case of The Hundred. Unlike most cricket [...]

  • Big Sport Quiz of 2021: How much do you remember?

    December 20, 2021

    From teenagers sweeping to Grand Slam tennis titles to England reaching a major football final, an Olympic Games like no other and the introduction of a brand new cricket competition, it has been a hugely eventful year in sport.
