The gap in pay between the top men’s and women’s players in The Hundred will widen from £75,000 to £135,000 from 2025.

Top level men’s players will see their pay increase by 60% to £200,000, while leading women’s salaries are rising 30% to £65,000.

The increases are part of an overall 25% rise across all salary bands.

In band seven – the lowest earning category – men will be paid £31,000, up from £30,000 in 2024, while women will earn £10,000, up from £8,000.

In 2023, the Independent Commission for Equity in Cricket recommended equal salaries in The Hundred by 2025.

The Hundred organisers say the increases are a “step forward”.

“That we are now offering four times what we were able to offer in the first year of the women’s competition is telling of the game’s continued growth, and clearly not the end of our journey,” said tournament director Rob Hillman.

The salary boost comes as the ECB sells stakes in all eight of The Hundred teams, with investors set to be in place for the 2025 season.
