The 2025 edition of The Hundred has hit the home stretch with the match-ups for Saturday’s Eliminator contests almost confirmed. <\/p>\n
The men’s and women’s sides that finish first in their respective tables after the eight group games secure direct qualification to the finals at Lord’s on Sunday August 31.<\/p>\n
The teams coming second and third will meet in the eliminator at The Kia Oval on Saturday August 30, with the winners of those matches then also making the final.<\/p>\n
Here is the state of play as the league phase enters its final stages…<\/p>\n
The Hundred – Men’s standings<\/p>\n
Men’s competition<\/p>\n
Oval Invincibles<\/strong>, Trent Rockets,<\/strong> and Northern Superchargers <\/strong>are certain of a top-three finish.<\/p>\n Invincibles have completed their eight group fixtures and lead on 24 points, while Superchargers have also played all their games and are third on 20 points.<\/p>\n Second-placed Rockets – also on 20 points – are the only top-three side with a fixture remaining, against Birmingham Phoenix<\/strong> on Wednesday, and could technically still move up or a down position.<\/p>\n However, the Rockets would need to win by an almost impossible margin to better Invincibles’ superb net run rate.<\/p>\n Slightly more realistic would be the Rockets dropping down below Superchargers if they were to suffer a defeat, but that would also have to be by a large margin.<\/p>\n It is therefore highly likely that the top three remain as they are, with Invincibles set to gain a place in Sunday’s final.<\/p>\n Finishing above the Superchargers in second would carry some value for Rockets, as it means they would advance to the final in the event of a washout.<\/p>\n \n How points are scored in The Hundred?\n <\/p>\n Phoenix<\/strong>, Southern Brave<\/strong>, London Spirit<\/strong>, Manchester Originals, and Welsh Fire<\/strong> are eliminated.<\/p>\n Remaining men’s group fixtures<\/p>\n All games live on Sky Sports, all times UK and Ireland<\/p>\n The Hundred – Women’s standings<\/p>\n Women’s competition<\/p>\n The top three is set in the women’s competition, with Southern Brave<\/strong> having already secured their place in Sunday’s final.<\/p>\n The Brave have sealed top spot with a game to spare, and could make it eight wins from eight if they beat Welsh Fire<\/strong> in the final group fixture on Thursday.<\/p>\n Northern Superchargers<\/strong> sealed second place as they beat Manchester Originals<\/strong> on Tuesday, also eliminating their opponents from contention.<\/p>\n That means Superchargers will face third-placed London Spirit<\/strong> in the Eliminator at The Oval on Saturday.<\/p>\n Already eliminated were Invincibles<\/strong>, Fire, Rockets<\/strong> and Phoenix. <\/strong><\/p>\n Remaining women’s group fixtures<\/p>\n All games live on Sky Sports, all times UK and Ireland<\/p>\n What is net run rate?<\/p>\n This is used to separate teams on the same number of points during a league format, in the way that goal difference does in football.<\/p>\n Net run rate in The Hundred is the average runs scored by a team over 100 balls in each game minus the average runs scored against them over 100 balls in each game.<\/p>\n When are the knockout stages in The Hundred?<\/p>\n\n
