Overview
- Both The Hundred finals are scheduled as a double‑header at Lord's on Sunday, August 16, with the women's final at 2:15pm and the men's at 6:00pm and a reserve day on Monday, August 17.
- Trent Rockets finished top of both the men's and women's group tables and therefore qualified directly for each final without playing an Eliminator.
- Sunrisers Leeds won the women's Eliminator at The Kia Oval to set up a meeting with Trent Rockets after a five‑wicket chase finished with Deepti Sharma unbeaten.
- Manchester Super Giants beat Sunrisers Leeds by 20 runs in the men's Eliminator at The Kia Oval, powered by Paul Walter's 80 and Josh Tongue's 4-26, to reach the men's final against Trent Rockets.
- This season introduced private ownership, IPL‑linked operators, a live player auction and higher overseas limits, and organisers report around 550,000 tickets sold with live UK broadcast on Sky Sports, signalling bigger budgets and wider reach for future editions.
