The Hundred returns today for the 2024 edition with Oval Invincibles hosting Birmingham Phoenix at The Kia Oval
The Invincibles – who have brought the trophy home in all three editions of the competition, will play five home matches at The Kia Oval before our home hosts the Eliminator on Saturday 17 August.
Once again, plenty of Surrey and South East Stars players have been selected for the various franchises.
All 12 South East Stars professionals that have signed to play for Surrey in 2025 have been selected by a team.
The Kia Oval will be home to Surrey’s Alice Capsey as well as her South East Stars teammates Paige Scholfield and Ryana MacDonald-Gay. Oval Invincibles, winners of the first two editions of the competition, will be yet again coached by Surrey’s women’s head coach, Jonathan Batty. Tash Farrant – who had originally been signed by the Oval Invincibles, has withdrawn from the 2024 edition of The Hundred due to a hamstring injury. Farrant will now begin her rehabilitation with the ECB and South East Stars medical teams.
Surrey’s Bryony Smith, Nat Sciver-Brunt, Kira Chathli, and Aylish Cranstone will wear the colours of Trent Rockets in 2024 alongside Stars’ left-arm seaming allrounder Alexa Stonehouse.
Wicketkeeper Rhianna Southby, who came through the Surrey pathway, will take the field for the reigning champions, Southern Brave. She will link up with Stars’ Kalea Moore and Tilly Corteen-Coleman. Moore bowled a fantastic spell in the 2023 final, taking three for 15, while Corteen-Coleman finished as the joint second-highest wicket-taker in her debut Charlotte Edwards Cup season and was picked up by the Brave in the 2024 draft. During the competition, if Corteen-Coleman gets a chance to play in one of Brave’s first two matches, she will become the youngest player to feature in The Hundred, a record currently held by Alice Capsey.
Stars’ explosive allrounder Alice Davidson-Richards will run out for last season’s finalists Northern Superchargers. In 2023, Davidson-Richards was superb with the ball for the Superchargers, her 10 wickets at an average of 22.40 helping her side storm into the finals.
Surrey and South East Stars leg-spinner Dani Gregory switched from Southern Brave to Manchester Originals for the 2024 season.
Phoebe Franklin will join up with her Stars teammate Sophia Dunkley at Welsh Fire this season.
At Birmingham Phoenix, Chloe Brewer, a Surrey pathway graduate, will be accompanied by Emma Jones. The Stars all-rounder was signed by Phoenix as a replacement for Ailsa Lister towards the end of June.
Bowling allrounder Eva Gray, who came through the ranks at Surrey, will be joined by South East Stars overseas signing, Georgia Redmayne, in playing for the London Spirit at Lord’s.
