The Hundred 2026: Signings, coaches and what's next

omg u guys!!!! i cant even right now!!!!! i just found out about the changes to The Hundred league and im literally shook πŸ˜‚πŸ’₯ first of all oval invincibles is a whole new name for MI London, like what happened to mi in london πŸ€” i feel like they're trying to distance themselves from the mi brand, but i'm still not on board with it πŸ™…β€β™‚οΈ

and then theres this new ownership group led by nikesh arora and tech billionaires πŸ€‘ im so down for some fresh capital tho, maybe we'll see some better facilities and infrastructure in the future 🏟️ the appointment of new coaches is also super exciting, shane bond and chris read are legends πŸ’ͺ

but u know what really got me pumped up? the possibility of streaming platforms being involved πŸ“Ί i mean, imagine getting to watch The Hundred live on twitch or facebook gaming πŸ‘€ it's like a whole new world of possibilities

anyway, im still waiting for more info on the 2028 broadcasting rights and who's gonna be available at auction πŸ€” joe root and jonny bairstow are on my radar btw πŸ”πŸ‘€
 
I'm so excited for the Hundred's 2026 season 🀩! The team name change is a great idea, it's gonna be sick to see Oval Invincibles on the pitch 😎. I'm also loving the new ownership group, tech billionaires are always cool πŸ’». Shane Bond and Chris Read are awesome choices for coaches, can't wait to see them in action πŸ†.

The changes in team management is also interesting, Justin Langer and Andy Flower joining new teams will bring a fresh vibe ⚑️. And of course, the auction is gonna be lit πŸ”₯, I'm keeping an eye on Joe Root and Jonny Bairstow, they're legends! But let's get one thing straight, please guys, respect the game πŸ™, no trash talking or cheating, that's just not cool πŸ˜’. We want to see some great cricket, not dirty tactics 🀒.
 
Ugh, I'm getting so tired of these massive rebranding updates every year 🀯. First it's the names, now it's the coaches... can't they just let things be for once? πŸ™„ I mean, I get that they're trying to modernize and attract new fans, but do we really need a whole new team identity? And what's with all these high-profile departures and arrivals? It's like the league is being run by a revolving door of personalities rather than actual sports expertise πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ.

And don't even get me started on the broadcasting rights stuff... streaming platforms, schmeaming platforms. Can't they just focus on getting the games on TV for once? I'm so sick of having to pay extra to watch my favorite teams online πŸ€‘. And what's with all these international stars being added to the mix? Are we really going to have a league where everyone is essentially an A-list celebrity athlete? It feels like they're more interested in making money off their fame than actual cricket skills πŸ’Έ.
 
omg i cant believe mi london is now oval invincibles πŸ˜‚ i remember watching them last season and now they just changed their name 🀯 idk about the new coaches tho - shane bond seems like a solid choice for birmingham phoenix but chris read better be able to handle those pressures on trent rockets women's team πŸ’ͺ anyway, this news about the 2028 broadcasting rights makes me wonder if we'll finally get to watch some of these games online πŸ“Ί and not just have to rely on tv or radio πŸ“» fingers crossed for a more accessible fanbase πŸ’•
 
I'm loving the changes in The Hundred league 🀩! New team names like Oval Invincibles sound so cool 😎, and I hope Nikesh Arora's new ownership group brings some fresh ideas to the table πŸ’‘. I think it's awesome that they're exploring new broadcasting rights for 2028 - streaming platforms could be a game-changer for fan engagement πŸ“Ί.

I'm also super excited about the coaching changes πŸ™Œ, Shane Bond and Chris Read are legends of the sport! And can we talk about how crazy it is that Joe Root and Jonny Bairstow are still available at auction? Those guys are England royalty πŸ‘‘. I'm curious to see if the league can attract more top talent with these changes... perhaps some international stars will start to take notice 🌎. Bring on 2026! πŸ†
 
just had to check out this cricket news lol πŸ˜‚ so it looks like the Hundred league is getting a total reboot for 2026! new team names, new coaches, and even some big-name players looking to join or leave... i'm not really sure what's going on with the tech billionaires involved tho πŸ€” maybe they're bringing some fresh cash and ideas to the table? and omg, can we talk about how excited i am for a potential streaming platform option? πŸ“Ί live cricket streaming would be SO cool! but anyway, it'll be interesting to see how all these changes impact the league's fanbase and viewership... fingers crossed they keep up the good vibes πŸ’š
