Georgia Adams
Southern Brave’s new captain scored 97 more points than anyone else in 2023 – that alone makes her a no-brainer to select in your Fantasy team.
She bats in the top order, bowls her 20 balls more often than not, and stands in the areas most likely to get catches. All in all, a Fantasy point magnet.
Sophie Ecclestone
There is a very good reason she is the most expensive player in the game – just look at the ICC rankings, where she is the No.1 bowler in ODI and T20 cricket.
Unsurprisingly a whopping 48% of you have already selected the spinner.
Manchester Originals were unlucky with the weather last year, which prevented Ecclestone from bagging some serious points (she still got 291), but expect the bails to light up regularly when she comes on to bowl.
Liam Livingstone
You might look at Livingstone’s 232 points in 2023 and think "nah, overpriced at 8.0 credits," but a couple of things to factor in.
He had two games washed out by rain, he has 11 more sixes than anyone else in The Hundred history books, and he takes a wicket every 17 balls he bowls. Get. Him. In!
Jos Buttler
One of England’s greatest and most explosive batters. Sixes bounce off his bat like rain bouncing off an umbrella.
He scored 551 points last year, thanks to topping the Men Competition’s run-scorer list with 391 runs and the keeper dismissals list with 11.
Only Daniel Sams prevented him from being the top man on the Fantasy charts as well… and the Australian all-rounder is injured this year!
Ellyse Perry
Quite simply the GOAT of women’s cricket. She takes loads of wickets, she scores lots of runs, and takes many catches. Everything you want in your Fantasy team. At 7.5 credits she’s really good value as well!
The Australian scored 58 runs on her The Hundred debut in 2022, and after missing out with an injury last year, Perry is ready to captain Birmingham Phoenix, and perhaps your Fantasy team, to glory.
