All Winners of The Hundred Men’s Tournament (2021–2025)
The Hundred Men’s: Champions by Year (2021–2024)
(Note: 2025 final yet to be played — final scheduled at Lord’s in August as usual.)
2021 – Southern Brave
In the inaugural men’s Hundred, Southern Brave clinched the title in a strong team effort. They set a competitive total and held off Birmingham Phoenix by 32 runs at Lord’s, led by captain James Vince and Key performances across both batting and bowling.
2022 – Trent Rockets
The second edition delivered one of the closest finals ever: Trent Rockets sealed victory against Manchester Originals with just two wickets in hand and only two balls to spare. Tactical bowling by Sam Cook and composure in the chase were defining.
2023 – Oval Invincibles’ First Title
Oval Invincibles broke through in 2023, defeating Manchester Originals by 14 runs at Lord’s. After a dramatic collapse to 34‑5, a heroic 127-run partnership between Tom Curran and Jimmy Neesham helped set a defendable score of 161.
2024 – Oval Invincibles Retain Title
In a historic back-to-back win, Oval Invincibles defended the men's title in 2024 by beating Southern Brave by 17 runs. A spellbinding bowling performance by Saqib Mahmood — taking 3 wickets for 17 runs in a tight spell — sealed the victory. Sam Curran was named Player of the Series.
A Look Ahead: 2025 Final on the Horizon
The 2025 Hundred Men's competition is underway, with the final scheduled at Lord’s in late August. While the champion will be confirmed then, past trends show strong contenders may once again come from franchises like Oval Invincibles, Southern Brave, Trent Rockets, or Manchester Originals.
Why These Wins Matter
Varied Champions: The first two years were won by different teams, followed by Oval Invincibles’ dominance in 2023–24.
Thrilling Finals: Each final delivered high drama—tight chases, collapses and game-changing partnerships.
Emerging Legends: Key figures like Sam Curran, Will Jacks, Saqib Mahmood, and James Vince shaped memorable performances under pressure.
Building Rivalries: Finals often involved repeat opponents—Northern teams sparred with Original sides and Brave contested twice with Invincibles.
Final Thoughts
Across four seasons from 2021 to 2024, the Hundred Men’s champions have shown a mix of first-time winners and back‑to‑back dominance. Expect more excitement—and possibly a new champion—in 2025’s edition. The final at Lord’s promises drama, passion, and perhaps another historic upset or two.
