Director of Major Events, Rob Hillman, said:
“It’s imperative in the current landscape of global cricket that we keep moving forward and keep reviewing our offer to the world’s top players.
“We want the best players participating in The Hundred to keep entertaining the millions of fans who’ve come through the doors in the four years of the competition, particularly families, young people and fans who are new to the game.
“I’m glad in the Men’s Competition we’ve been able to boost our top earners to £200,000, while to be at £65,000 for our top earners in the Women’s Competition is another step forward. That we are now offering four times what we were able to offer in the first year of the Women’s Competition is telling of the game’s continued growth, and clearly not the end of our journey.
“We’re really excited about where The Hundred goes next, conversations with potential investors continue to be incredibly positive, and we’re committed to continue delivering a world-class competition that excites fans across the globe.”
