Let’s look into Birmingham Phoenix Squad Analysis for the Hundred 2024. T20 leagues have taken the world by storm. To make it more interesting, the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) introduced a 100-ball competition named “The Hundred” in July 2021. A total of eight teams take part in it. Three editions have been successful, and the fourth season is around the corner.
Each team is made up of 15 players, of whom a maximum of four can be overseas players.
Teams had the option to retain up to 10 men’s players who held contracts at any stage in the 2022 season even if they never made an appearance at a mutually-agreed salary band.
