The Hundred Men 2023: Complete list of retained players
The Hundred’s retention window closed on Tuesday night, following weeks of negotiations between players, agents, coaches and general managers.
Deadline Day saw the eight teams in The Hundred confirming the players that they retained in their men’s and women’s squads, ahead of the third year of the competition.
Across both competitions, 113 players have been retained in total, meaning 135 spots remain to be filled at The Hundred Draft powered by Sage, and across the open market process in the women’s competition.
Teams in the men’s competition are able to retain 10 players, and women’s teams can retain four of their players. Six men’s sides have retained all 10, while Welsh Fire – under the new leadership of Australian great Mike Hussey – will have eight places to fill at The Draft, at which they’ll have the first pick.
