The Hundred 2023: Full squads - men and women, match timings IST and live streaming - all you need to know

The Ashes series is headed towards another thrilling finish and the English cricket fans have yet another extravaganza to feast on, just a day later - the Hundred. The new 100-ball competition by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) may have financially been under fire of late, however, has been successful enough for the fans and viewers to be buzzing ahead of its third season and for it to have its separate window with probably all the local international players available. The vibrant tournament, especially the women's competition, has done for the women's game more in two seasons than other franchise leagues and it's all down to the number of young fans it has been able to attract in the previous two seasons.

The squads for all eight teams - Trent Rockets, Southern Brave, Oval Invincibles, Northern Superchargers, Manchester Originals, Welsh Fire, London Spirit and Birmingham Phoenix - have undergone a few tweaks in both men's and women's competitions like every other franchise league in the world but the core of most teams has remained the same.

The biggest difference has been in the Welsh Fire squad with a new captain in Tom Abell, a few international stars - including the Pakistan pace duo of Shaheen Afridi and Haris Rauf and hopefully availability of their marquee player, Jonny Bairstow, even if only for a few games. Trent Rockets will start as favourites once again in the men's competition and in the women's too, the team in yellow might not be far off with Indian captain Harmanpreet Kaur reuniting with her Mumbai Indians teammate Nat Sciver-Brunt. But Oval Invincibles, the two-time champions will be a contender once again with Southern Brave hoping to break the jinx, once and for all.
