The Hundred 2021 Schedule, Team, Venue, Time Table, PDF

April 10, 2021 By Brady Cavan Leave a Comment

Back in the days, there were only test matches and ODIs. Afterward, a decade and a half back, we got the T20s. Moving forward, now we have the Hong Kong Super Sixes, the T10, and a brand-new format that is being introduced this year, the Hundred (100). The Hundred Cricket 2021 is the latest format that will be played in England and Wales and was proposed by ECB back in 2016. Between the county clubs of England, the format got an approval vote by the margin of 16 to 3. Firstly, it was supposed to be played in 2020, but as we all know about the Covid-19 pandemic, the tournament didn’t happen. However, The Hundred 2021 fixtures are set for this year and will be beginning very soon.

The Hundred cricket tournament is a bit like the T20 format but not the same. There are different rules for teams and players, different fielding, bowling, and batting rules, and so on. We will be discussing all of that in this article.

Well, having said that, below you can go through the complete rules of the tourney, the 100 fixtures 2021, live scores tab, live streaming platforms, teams & venues details, and lastly, there will be a downloading link for the schedule so that you can save it in your device.

The Hundred Cricket – Overview

In case you all don’t know the meaning of the format’s name, then by The Hundred, we mean a 100-ball match. Both teams will face 100 balls, and there are a specific set of rules that the teams and players will follow. It is somewhat similar to T20, but a lot different as well. England’s test team captain, Joe Root, was in the favor of the format, along with the white-ball captain, Eoin Morgan. However, players like Dawid Malan and Mark Wood were not in favor and said that their preference will be T20 cricket.

On the other hand, Virat Kohli and Jimmy Neesham were not very impressed by the Hundred and the latter said that why would ECB try something like this when there is already a very successful format in the form of T20.

So, as can be seen, there is support and opposition for the format. But nevertheless, once it gets played this year, then the reaction of the fans would determine a lot about this new set-up of cricket.

The Hundred Cricket Schedule 2021
