After another explosive summer of shortened format cricket, The Hundred competition is drawing to a close with only one match left to play in both the men and women’s tournament.

Once again, August has been a showcase of the some of the best domestic cricketers England has to offer, as well as a number of superb talents from around the world.

Not only have we seen players such as Will Jacks, Will Smeed, and Lauren Winfield-Hill excel, but international superstars like Smriti Mandhana, Sunil Narine, and Beth Mooney have also shone.

Last year’s men’s champions Southern Brave will relinquish their title after a poor campaign that was hampered by the loss of several key players through injury.

The women’s reigning champions however, Oval Invincibles, have won all but one of their fixtures and are heavily tipped to win the tournament once again.

Centuries, five-wicket hauls, and mindblowing catches have been seen aplenty, but as the tournament now draws to a close, only a few players will have the final opportunity to exhibit their talent as Lord’s finals day looms.

Who are favourites to win The Hundred 2022?

Trent Rockets are on course for their first ever victory in the men’s competition. They have lost just two of their group stage matches and have successfully put themselves straight into the Hundred final.

They have the tournament’s top run scorer, Dawid Malan as well as Alex Hales who has also produced some significant runs for his side.

Luke Wood and Samit Patel have been excelling for the Rockets on the bowling front and it will take a strong and defiant squad to bring them down from their high-scoring momentum.

In the women’s tournament the Oval Invincibles seem unreachable.

However, Southern Brave have had an exceptionally strong tournament with both the competition’s top two wicket-takers (Amanda-Jade Wellington and Lauren Bell) playing for the Hampshire based team.

The unstoppable Smriti Mandhana is also part of the Southern Brave squad, so if Oval Invincibles can suppress her talent, they will most likely be on course for a second victory.
